It’s nice to have you here, contractor.

I want to provide the correct solution concerning your bank and chequing balances in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

With this, I’d like to ask clarifying questions to determine what is causing this. First, may I know the purpose of the adjustments? Did you enter this using a Journal Entry (JE), Check, or Deposit? Also, what are the affected accounts upon creating this? Is it the credit card or just the bank?

I’ll wait for your response to rectify this matter. Have a good one!

HI Jill,

 

I've attached a screenshot of one of the adjustments I have done, and this is being done on a monthly basis in order to match up what the payroll reports state. There shouldn't be any accounts affected by this which is my issue. I'm simply trying to break out and expense the payroll tax accounts and reconcile that with the total amount being expensed by payroll. Right now, my main chequing account is off due these monthly adjustments.

 

Please advise, thank you!

Thank you for getting back to us and sharing more information, @contractor-danie.

 

I understand your payroll adjustment affects your checking account. I'll share information about handling adjustments.

 

For payroll adjustments, I suggest working with an accountant. This way, you can avoid messing up your books in QuickBooks Online. If you don't have an accountant, find one here: Find an accountant.
