PAYROLL Question

I currently run QuickBooks online for payroll. But I just received another grant that will be funded through a different bank account. It is also connected to my QB account. My question is, in order to run payroll, will I need an additional QuickBooks account or is there a way to choose which account I want to issue that employee direct deposit from? I don't see under the payroll setting a place to do this.

PAYROLL Question

Hi there, @Allisha-Jones.

 

I'll make sure to change the bank account information used for your employees' payroll transactions in QuickBooks Online.

 

To get started, you don't need a new account in QuickBooks to use a different bank account. Instead, let's update the bank account information used where your employees' payroll transactions are charged. You can find this preference directly from your account's payroll settings. I'll show you how.

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon.
  2. Under Your Company, select Payroll Settings.
  3. On the Bank Accounts section, select Company.
  4. Review and change your bank account information.
  5. Click OK.

 

Once done changing your bank account information, let's review what are the accounts used for your payroll transactions and maybe change them using this reference: Change the Accounting Preferences in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

Lastly, I've got you this helpful article for ideas about how you can work well with your employees' payroll in QuickBooks: Help Articles in QuickBooks Online Payroll. You can also get an overview of the other payroll features used to save time in creating your paychecks and running your payroll.

 

If there's anything else that I can help you with aside from updating your payroll account information, please let me know in the comment section below. I'll be notified once you include my name, @JonpriL, in your follow-up reply. Take care always!
