A warning for QuickBooks Online Payroll Customers
QBO Payroll has created two inaccurate transactions in my bank account’s chart of accounts, they do not match the actual bank withdrawals nor the payroll tax payments.
In one case, the transaction was initially recorded correctly, and I matched it to the bank feed transaction. 10 days later, "System Administration" edited the transaction amount to an incorrect value.
After spending hours with QBO Payroll support, they have refused to correct the issue and instead suggested I hire an accountant to make manual journal entries to reconcile the accounts.
How can customers trust a system where transactions can be altered after the fact, making them inaccurate, with no process to review or correct them?
There are some reasons why there are transaction change and the System Administration message prompts on your end, CCG. The reasons are due to integration QuickBooks with a third-party app, recurring transaction, and updating your bank feeds. I will ensure that we address and resolve this issue to ease your worries.
Let's double-check in the audit log to review the affected account or transaction and re-enter or edit your bank register.

This AI generated response is irrelevant to the issue.
For starters, there is no error message.
Second, this is acting as if the user can edit a transaction generated by the QBO Payroll service, which as far as i am aware, they cannot. Obviously, if i could edit it i would.
Third, why should i need to pay for an additional service to correct a bug in the QuickBooks Payroll service that i already pay for?
I have the same issue. They want us to pay one of their accountants to fix the problem they created.
