Hi there, @Fuller1. I appreciate you for posting to the Community concerning reverting payroll item setup in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).
We're unable to revert a payroll item from its prior setup. However, we can restore a backup company file where you've saved the previous setup. Please know that doing this will change back your accounting data. This is usually used to aid any instances if ever you run into problems in managing your company.
Before we start, please make sure to save a copy of your company before taking any actions.
Refer to the steps below to begin restoring your backup file:
After that, you can take down the following details you may need to change your payroll item setup. Then, restore your latest backup and re-enter the following information.
Additionally, QuickBooks offers a variety of payroll reports. This will give you a more thorough picture of the gross pay, deductions, and tax data for your employee over a specific time frame. For a comprehensive list of available payroll reports and instructions on how to get them, please visit this article: Run payroll reports.

Is there a way to look at how the payroll item was set up, without editing it? I am looking to see if taxes are withheld or not. And if tax tracking was one and what kind of account it was linked to.
