First paycheck for every new employee is missing from chart of accounts

So the first paycheck for any new employee doesn't show up in the chart of accounts, making reconciliation impossible.  The second check works just fine.  This has been happening for the last two years and I'm sick of it.  It's harder and harder to contact QBO support, which thus far has been the only fix when I hire a new employee.

 

The first person that "fixed it" had me manually add an entry, but the second actually fixed the issue with some sort of "reset" or "refresh".  But that brought back the missing paycheck from the first instance, and completely screwed up my reconciliation.  So don't do the manual entry route. 

 

But could QBO fix it in the first place so it doesn't happen?
