editing direct deposit bank info after submitting payroll

I had already submitted payroll--early--and had an employee tell me he'd changed banks. I went into the payroll center, called up the employee, selected the transaction and selected edit direct deposit. I changed all the banking info and it went off and said it was submitted. Can I count on this being correct and not paying into his old, now closed, account?

editing direct deposit bank info after submitting payroll

Thanks for dropping by the Community space and laying out the details of your concern, @RecycleME.

 

I'm here to provide some steps to help you modify your employee's direct deposit bank information.

 

For the two-day funding time of your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) Payroll, your workers are paid two banking days after sending your payroll to us. So, if you've submitted your payroll today before the lead time of 5 PM PST, we can void your direct deposit paychecks before sending payroll data. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Employees menu and click Edit/Void Paychecks.
  2. Change the Show paychecks through/from dates to the date of the paychecks you need to void, then press Tab on your keyboard.
  3. Click the check-in question and select Void.
  4. Enter YES, then click Void.
  5. Tick the checkbox to agree to the terms and conditions of voiding the paycheck.
  6. Then, repeat steps 1- 5 to include all checks you need to void.

 

From there, you can recreate and send your direct deposit paychecks before the lead time today. Otherwise, it will be posted to your old bank if not yet sent before funding time today.

 

About your old bank, you may receive a Notice of Change (NOC) from QBDT Payroll. You can reach out to your bank so they can further assist you with the next steps.
