Fter adding default payroll accounts for each location, I expected the journal would include locations. How to you get location details to appear on the pay run journal?

Hi judi4,

In the Chart of Accounts settings in the Payroll Settings, ensure you have ticked Split by Location next to each payroll account you want locations to display for.

However if the locations aren't showing at all, you may have to reconfigure the settings within QuickBooks Payroll, by following the steps below:

1. Navigate to the Employees tab, then select Payroll Settings, and under the Pay Run Settings column, select Locations.
2. Select Import QuickBooks Locations on the top-right to bring in the location list from QuickBooks, and then select each location and tick Make this location available to all employees, and Save.
3. When running the pay run, select the Location of the earnings lines for each employee, and then upon finalising the pay run, the journals should be populated with separate journal entries for the specific locations that you selected for those earnings.

Hope this helps!

Bonny
