How can I enter timesheets for employees that are not in the timesheet dropdown? I have set up two new employees in Quick Books but I cannot enter timesheets for them.

Hi heather14,

Thank you for posting in the Community!

Are you creating the timesheets through the + New button QuickBooks Online and select Single or Weekly timesheet and the employee is not showing? If so, let's export the employees first from your payroll account. 

Here's how:

1. Click on the Payroll tab.
2. Click on the drop down arrow next to Add Employees.
3. Click on Export Employees.
4. Search or type the employee name that did not show in the timesheet.
5. Click on Sync.

Repeat the same process for the second employee name.

Then, let's go back to creating the timesheet and see if the employee name is showing up this time.

If the employee name is still not showing in the list, you can manually add them through the Single or Weekly timesheet by clicking on Add option.

Post again in the Community if you have further concerns. I'll be around to help you. Have a great rest of the day!
