We have 2 employees who are owners and have the additional pay type "S-Corp Owners Health Insurance" on and it's populated with our monthly health insurance premium for our monthly payroll. In the PL report this expense show up under Company Contributions -> Health Insurance as Payroll Check transaction type in the Payroll Expenses:Company Contribution:Health Insurance account. It also shows up Payroll Expenses -> Wages as Payroll Check transaction type in Payroll Expenses:Wages with the Memo "S-Corp Health Insurance - Company Contribution" account. Why are there 2 entries for the same expense? How can this be fixed? Thanks.
I file as an S Corp. There are 2 owner-employees and 1 salaried employee paid bi-monthly on the 20th (Day 1-15) and 5th (Previous month Day 16-End of Month). Employer pays half of the employees health insurance (my accountant said it's easier not to account for the half paid by owner-employees paycheck, IE no deductions/contributions on owner-employees' payroll). I pay for health insurance on the 1st. Employees first payroll for a pay period in that month is on the 20th, which there is an Employee Deduction for half of insurance and a Company Contribution for the other half. On the 5th of the following month, the remaining balances are paid with the payroll for the 2nd half of the previous month. My P&L current shows the full health insurance premium debit (the actual expense from bank account) under a Health Insurance account. Then under Payroll Expenses, there is a duplicate debit for health insurance (the Company Contribution form payroll). My Ba
I have a recurring issue on a few accounts that have to do with how the AR was originally journalized back in 2015. I have transactions within a customer that net to $0, however I don't know how to clear them so they disappear from the report. The only complexity here is that there are journal entries involved. I know how to clear invoices/payments with discounts and credits, but I don't know how to clear the below. Again, the accounting impact is $0, but it makes the detailed reports messy/conviluted.How do I clear for good? THanks,
Just got an email from Intuit about the pricing changes. It sounded as if they are going to start charging for using payroll with Enterprise Gold. Am I reading this right?

Version Mac OB 20212 days ago when I opened QB the admin login appeared, not problem.This morning when I went to open QB the admin login did not pop-up and I cannot open any of the company files.The message I receive is "QBooks 2021 is marked read only.."Anyone know what happened and how to fix?Thanks.
This option seems only available with emailed invoices.
Very annoying! Every 7 days when I open my company file, QB asks me to log into my Intuit account (so I can use Payments, Payroll and TSheets). We don't use any of those features. I shouldn't have to log into an Intuit account! It's a security issue - I do not wish to open a connection to Intuit wherin it might have access to my organization's financials. If we don't need Payroll, Payments or TSheets, we should not have to access an Intuit account and with so much hacking in the world today, we should not have to open up a connection to Intuit that could possibly expose our data - it's not secure no matter how much security Intuit tries to bake into it. How do I stop Quickbooks from requesting that I log into my Intuit account? Is there a way to turn off this nagging request - so far the best I can do is to select the option that says Remind me in 7 days. Where is the Never remind option or the setting to turn it off or the smarts in the ap
In one of my prior questions I was instructed to visit the QUICKBOOKS ONLINE FEATURE REQUESTS website for any request updates. I was anticipating a site where I could view the feedback I (and others) had provided and see if there were any comments from the development team. However, when I visit the site I see Feedback Forums on the left and Recent Updates on the right. I'm not sure if or how to search for any response to the feedback I provided. When I click on one of the Feeback Forums ( QBO estimates for example) I get a discussion on hemp extraction.Am I looking in the right place? Are my expectations of what to expect from the website correct or am I mistaken?I like the concept, just not sure I am on the correct path. Thanks for your assistance.
Sometimes, no federal or state is taken out of server paychecks, but they still get a net paycheck.
We are a non-profit club that puts on events for our members. I needed to generate P&L reports for each event. My solution was to create tags for each event and then apply those tags to the applicable transactions. (99% of our transactions come into QB from PayPal or our Bank checking/savings accounts.) The tags worked great, and I loved the Tag page. For example, when categorizing a PayPal transaction, I just needed to either type in a new tag value or select from a dropdown of existing tags. Now that tags are going away, I followed directions and created an Event custom field and checked all the boxes it would apply to (e.g. Expense, Bill, etc.) Problem is I only see this field if I am creating a new expense. It doesn't show when categorizing PayPal or Bank transactions and it also doesn't show if I'm doing a new deposit. What am I doing wrong? I have the essentials subscription, but am willing to upgrade if that is needed to either make Custom fields work or if anyone has
I have not been able to connect my Truist bank accounts to my QBO company for a month. They were previously linked without issue. I disconnected them when I created a new company and have not been able to get them reconnected. I have tried incognito windows, different browsers, clearing my cache, etc. There are no error messages. It simply says "Sorry an unexpected error has occurred. Please try again." I have spoken with 6 different customer care representatives and no one has been able to resolve my issue. I have done multiple screen shares with different customer service reps. I have been told that engineers would fix it or get back to me in a few days. This has never happened. I have spoken with my bank and confirmed that the issue is not on their end. I have even paid extra money for a Quickbooks connection at my bank and that has not resolved the issue. I get different answers from each person and they always end in adding screenshots of my problem (above) to a ca
I hope someone can help me with this please. Employee was overpaid 10 hours OT on his last paycheck.I would like to post -10 hours to his OT bucket on this week's paycheck. QB Online doesn't let me do this.I was always able to do this on the desktop. QBO does not submit tax payments, I initiate these myself so there is no liability to QB at all.I have sent feedback to QBO about this many times and get no response.Does anyone know a back door I can go to for this correction?Thank you

Hi, We’re trying to run payroll for an employee based in Iowa, but the system won’t allow us to set a check date in either May or June for April. It says that IA tax payments for the quarter have already been made. Interestingly, we were able to successfully run payroll for another employee in North Carolina for the same period without any issues. Could you help us understand why this is happening with Iowa specifically? Is there a way to fix it so we can run the payment as scheduled?
I’m reaching out because I’m having trouble viewing my bank transactions in QuickBooks Self-Employed. My dashboard shows that transactions have been downloaded starting from August 2023, but when I try to search or filter for any bank activity from 2024, nothing appears. I’ve confirmed that the account is connected and syncing. Can you please help me understand why I can’t access or view any transactions from 2024, even though earlier downloads appear to have been successful?
My credit card issuer (Barclays) requires confirmation through an email or text verification code in order to login. Unsurprisingly, I suppose, when I try to set up that bank feed with my username/password the login fails. Is there a known work-around for this issue?
