Payroll expenses showing as class not specified

Hello

I have been managing payroll expenses since jan 2024 in QBO. Our company has four different classes setup but the payroll expenses always automatically go to the same class. It was in Nov 2024 when i ran a profit and loss report by classes and the payroll expenses only in August 24 were appearing as class not specified. July and September are all good.

 

Can anyone suggest a solution to this ?

 

Already contacted QB team but they have nothing to suggest.

 

Thank you

Nice to hear back from you

 

The investigation is going on for more than over 5 months. We thought the engineers will have a solution by the end of year which will make us close and analyse our financials more efficiently. That looks like an impossibility now.

 

Meanwhile I have witnessed investigations for canadian users for the same issue takin an year or so, still not resolved. How long companies can hold on these investigations ?

 

Thank you

I believe that I also created a case that is linked to INV-113003. My case number is: 15126910214

 

In my case, starting after August 2nd, 2024, payroll expenses related to salaried employees are no longer be tracked against the client accounts to which their time is booked.

 

Prior to that date, pro-rated amounts of their salary were costed against client accounts according to the proportion of hours they booked to each client account.

 

After August 2nd, 2024, none of their time gets attributed to client accounts.

 

As a result, I cannot run an accurate Income by Client report to know my profit and loss per client account!

 

In other words, Quickbooks Online and the Payroll function are completely failing at their core accounting responsibility!

I just spent over three hours with a Pro Advisor Team member and this issue is still not resolved. 

Went to tier three with the engineers and they did not resolve the issue but they told my Advisor that it was. 

Do not hold your breath here because the engineering team has not resolved  the issue of Payroll Class Tracking, Updating Transactions, or providing any customer service. 

I was not allowed to speak directly with the engineering team to try and resolve the issue. 

I use direct deposit transaction and cannot edit a check for class transactions. 

They suggested that there was a GL item not Classed and I had to inform the engineers that their system does not track classed by GL accounts and that it is done through the Payroll Settings. 

The engineer team told my Pro Advisor Team member that the issue was resolved which it is not. 

They LIE!

I have serious concerns with the quality of engineers at INTUIT. 

This experience SUCKED!
