When I pay tips on employees paycheque, it doesn't come out of my gratuities/tips account. Can I make them connected, or how to I record a withdrawal from that account?

Hi there, 

QuickBooks Online makes it really easy for you to track tips on your employee's pay cheques. There's a dedicated field for tip tracking, as well as a dedicated account for tracking tips. This eliminates the need to set up an account manually. 

Follow the steps in this article titled, "How to record a tip and add tips on the employee pay cheque": https://quickbooks.intuit.com/community/Help-Articles/How-to-record-a-tip-and-add-tips-on-the-employee-pay-cheque/m-p/261387.

This article is a great resource that will help you set up the tips tracking feature and add tips to employee pay cheques. 

If you have any other questions, let me know.

Have a great day!
