How do I delete a payroll deduction from the list in QuickBooks online payroll? I have 2 with the same name and I want to delete one of them but I not seeing how.

I know how to delete a payroll deduction in QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll, Jerry. Allow me to provide you with the necessary steps today.

 

QuickBooks allows you to delete a deduction item through the employee's profile. To start:

 

  1. Sign in to your QBO account.
  2. Click on Payroll at the left pane, then select Employees.
  3. Go to the Deductions & contributions section, then Edit.
  4. Select the deduction you want to delete.
  5. Click on the trash bin icon.a27 1.PNG
  6. Tap Delete to confirm the action.a27 2.PNG

 

If you'd like to update a payroll deduction item, refer to the steps outlined in this article as your reference: Set up, change, or delete employee-paid payroll deductions.

 

After correcting the deductions and other items, prepare to process your employees' paychecks.
