I have a tile on my Payroll overview tab that continually says "Something went wrong on our end - please wait a couple minutes and try again" But this never goes away

Thanks for getting in touch with the Community, SRobinson14.

 

I've reviewed our ongoing/solved investigations and can confirm there's currently no records of subscribers reporting a "Something went wrong on our end - please wait a couple minutes and try again" message consistently displaying on their Payroll Overview screen.

 

I tested this myself in our test drive account and was able to load my Payroll Overview screen multiple times without the message showing up.

 

Since you're encountering this message each time you view your Overview tab, I'd recommend checking the browser. It's possible this could have something to do with temporary internet files. Browsing applications store these types of records, but sometimes they can cause issues with certain webpages. You can open a private window and check to see if the message still displays.

 

Here's how to access incognito mode in some of the most commonly used web browsers:

  • Google Chrome: Ctrl Shift N
  • Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl Shift P
  • Microsoft Edge: Ctrl Shift P
  • Safari: Command Option P

 

If you're not encountering the message while browsing privately, it's safe to say this problem's being caused by your browser. It can be fixed by clearing cached data and Intuit-specific cookies.

 

In the event it continues occurring while browsing in incognito mode, you'll initially want to try switching to another browsing application.

 

Here's a list of supported browsers:

  • Safari - version 12 or newer
  • Google Chrome - version 78 or newer
  • Mozilla Firefox - version 76 or newer
  • Microsoft Edge - version 75 or newer
  • Opera - version 68 or newer
  • Samsung - version 10 or newer

 

You can also check a browser's compatibility with QuickBooks by utilizing our browser health checkup tool. QuickBooks supports the current and two previous versions of browsers. If you find that you're using an unsupported version, make sure to update it to its latest release. Steps for doing so can be found on the particular company's website.

 

In the event you've found no problems that could be causing this with your browser, I'd recommend using a different device and/or internet connection. If it continues happening on other devices and/or internet connections, you'll want to get in touch with our Customer Care team. They'll be able to pull up the account in a secure environment, conduct further research, and create an investigation ticket if necessary.

 

They can be reached while you're signed in.
