I can help walk you through the steps of how to fix the check that is deposited to the wrong account in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
Let's go to the view register to edit the check you've previously deposited.
Here's how:
After that, open your personal bank account to verify if the check is already there.
You can also check these great resources that can help you with managing your COA, deposits, bank feeds, and other relevant topics.

Thanks for the reply. However, my personal banking account is not connected with QB's. So I cannot post it.
Thanks for the quick reply, @llm050.
I'm here to ensure you can transfer the deposit to your personal account in QuickBooks Online (QBO).
Since the personal account is not connected to QBO, I'd suggest depositing the amount to the Owner's Equity. But before doing that, let's delete first the wrong deposit. Simply go to your business account, then delete the transaction.
After deleting, please follow the steps below.
Then right after, create an Expense transaction to return the money to your personal account.
Here's how:
Also, you can always run the quick reports by clicking the drop-down arrow beside View Register. This way, you can review your data, then customize it to show the specific details. See the sample screenshot for your guidance.
Additionally, I've added articles about the How do I question in QBO: Help Article.
