The bank account was off by 1 number. It has not rejected back to us yet, but the employees bank says they can't help. I'm not sure what to do, and I need to get the employee paid today. DD should have gone in this morning.

Let's me help you find your employee's direct deposit, Martha!
If the account number is closed and inactive, the payroll transaction will be rejected and the funds will be given back to your account within 7-10 business days. Since your direct deposit should've gone through your employee's account, it's best to give our phone specialists a call. They have the tools to look into your account and see the status of your employee's direct deposit payroll.

Allow me to answer this and similar questions.
Quickbooks is not forgiving on mistakes. You will have to wait 7 to 10 business days, and is the ladder more than the formal.
In the future, should this kind of error repeat, we recommend using ADP for payroll. They typically take care of such issues in 1 to 3 business days.
I would like to find complete direct deposit information for an employee. Can I do and how.

Thank you for using the direct deposit service. If you more questions about it, just comment below.
I am having the same issue. I have the correct account number now so what do I do? Should I wait till its rejected and what if it goes into an actual account?
Thanks for joining this thread, @East Coast Drainage.
If your employee's bank account info is incorrect, the direct deposit may be declined and the money will be refunded to your bank account within 2-3 banking days after the payment date. You can also track the funds by verifying their status directly with the bank to confirm whether the direct deposit will be rejected or not.
You'll receive a notification from Intuit as soon as the bank rejects DD and returns the funds. If not, you need to contact the bank to get the funds.
Then, I suggest updating your employee’s direct deposit account information to make sure you'll send your next payroll to the correct account. Updating their DD account information will not affect any paychecks created prior to the process. Here's how:

Hello,
From what I am understanding is that, I have to wait 2 weeks to get paid again and receive my missed pay? or is it the 2-3 days to get paid again? I am the employee, just need a bit of clarification.
Thank you so much!
Hello there, Not_Mr_Urban.
Let me ease your confusion about your payroll concern.
The number of banking days mentioned in the above replies is the days when the refund will be posted to your employer's bank.
To make sure you'll get your pay, I suggest reaching out to your employer so that they might issue you a paper check. This way, you'll be paid on time.
That's it! If you have any other questions about payroll, @Not_Mr_Urban, you can post them here at any time. I'll be right here to help.
I am an employee and I had my DD information updated in May to a new account . I received multiple deposits on time and then all of the sudden I did not get paid , my manager said that QuickBooks lost my correct account info and sent my check to my old account. They then wrote me a paper check while they requested a reversal. They couldn't get the funds returned and now I was told that they are not going to pay me this coming pay day plus an additional 10 hours of pay from my next check to get there money back that I did not get and the mistake was not my fault. Who do I contact to resolve this?

Greetings Nina/Intuit! I have a similar issue: employee did not provide correct bank acct/direct deposit info. I already received an email that the funds could not be deposited to the EE bank account and will be credited to our bank account. I understand how to revise the account number for the next payday. Do I still need to call Intuit to confirm that funds will be returned to us? Thanks!
Thanks for joining this thread, @cheryl0322. You've come to the right place to get the answer you're looking for regarding direct deposits.
There's no need to call Intuit after receiving a reject notice and no need for a reversal. Once the payroll is rejected, you can send a zero payroll so Intuit will automatically create a deposit to your Direct Deposit Liabilities account. If not, QB will add the deposit to the DD Liabilities account the next time you send payroll.
If you're still unable to see the deposit, you'll have to manually enter it. Here's how:
Finally, I encourage checking out the following resources that explain the different payroll statuses and how to fix direct deposit issues:

I know this is an old post but it's the closest I can find to what I need answered.
Two weeks ago (and couple days) an employee gave us their new bank account and routing number. When DD was sent it went to their OLD bank account and not the new one (that we updated and saved - and we deleted the old one). So start of this week we checked and the banking information had completely reverted back to the old banking information (account number/routing) so we once again entered the new account number and new routing number. Both of those are showing (just as they did two weeks prior) except where it lists the bank name it's the old bank name listed and not the one connected to the new routing number. We need this resolved and it should not be this hard. This cannot hit her old account as that means it goes to her now ex and he will not return the funds opening up a completely other issue. Please advise/help on how to fix this issue. We change their banking info and we use workforce via our QuickBooks. Thank you.

Did you find a resolution?
I'm having an awful time trying to "locate" payroll funds for an employee that I entered the incorrect account number for. QuickBooks said call the receiving bank, the receiving bank said talk to QuickBooks - I went in circles making 9 phone calls and spending HOURS on the phone with everyone. The closest I got was that the employee should call their bank with the trace # and amount to see where their money is.
Luckily, we have just issued a check to the employee, so they are not left without pay, but the company certainly wants the money back. This is incredibly frustrating to just be told "wait 7-10 business days" but still not have anything returned to us or received by the employee!
