Hi doug-taylorrisks,
It's a pleasure to see you in Community. Welcome! QuickBooks Online Payroll is a dynamic way to pay your staff with confidence. It's essential that your payroll is mapped to the correct account, to ensure your staff is paid on time. I would be glad to help!
If you would like to pay your staff directly from your chequing account, you'll need to complete the steps for direct deposit. Once you've entered the required elements, you'll need to verify a direct deposit test transaction. This will be two small debits of less than $1.00 (CAD, charged to your account as a test within 2 - 3 business days. You can follow this link to get started with setting up direct deposit.
