Payroll into online account

I have just moved from desktop to online accounts at the same time we took up the new payroll as the previous desktop version has just ceased. I can run the payroll in online perfectly but after two weeks I have noticed the payroll is not bringing the figures into the accounts? Payroll costs are zero. The payrolls have run ok. How do i link them so it imports the figures across?

Payroll into online account

Hi Graham Bethell

 

Are you referring to the fact that the payroll journals are not being created and therefore non of the usual liability and expense accounts are not being affected when you run payroll? If this is the case you will have to create the new accounts relating to payroll within the chart of accounts, we have included a screen shots of the accounts that need to be created and an example of of how a basic journal should look, make inactive the chart of accounts, in the online version, relating to your desktop payroll or rename the existing ones that you used in desktop to the names we have included. Once you create the journal, it should, moving forward create the journals automatically however this is not guarenteed. Note, you will have to set up a parent accounts noted in the account column and then create sub accounts noted in the line items columns. If you are using the advanced payroll system please let us know and we will be able to assist you further.
