Recreate a deleted direct deposit payroll liability account in QuickBooks Online

Hi, Kisha. Let me share with you some information about merging and recreating accounts in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

You can merge accounts in QBO once they have the same account type, detail type, and name. If the direct deposit payable account is changed to a bank account type and was merged to another bank account, then yes, you won't be able to undo the process at all. However, you can always create a new liability account following these steps:

1. Sign in to QuickBooks.
2. Go to the Gear icon, then click on Chart of Accounts.
3. Hit New to add a new account.
4. Fill in the information, then click on Save and Close.

Once done, you can use this account when setting up your payroll or direct deposit preferences.
