direct deposit

I ran the direct deposit paystubs and they have check number listed (with no check number) rather than the usual DD (with number followed).  After printing, they also show up to print forms as a check, and in the check register it shows as to be printed for the check number.  Payroll was transmitted as direct deposit.  How do I correct this in my check register, and be sure it is correct going forward?

Hi Grndhog,

 

It's an unusual behavior of QuickBooks to be like that. Let's try to make sure that your QB Print component is updated. Please follow the steps found in this article how to get this fixed: Using the Print & PDF Repair tool.

 

Moving forward, let's also make sure to select Assign DD numbers when entering paycheck. This will prevent direct deposits from being placed in the check-printing queue. Here's a reference: Create Paychecks in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.

I have been using direct deposit for all employees for a few years now.  I use Quickbooks Desktop payroll.  The last few weekly payrolls I have done are still sitting in print queue to be printed even though the money was deducted from my bank account and all of my employees' checks have been deposited.  I ran the print tool you suggested but nothing has worked.

I have been using intuit payroll for our company's direct deposit payroll for years and have updated this year to QB desktop Pro Plus 2021.  Today when entering payroll just before sending to Intuit, I received a message saying that there were duplicate DDnumbers.  I went back to my QB and saw half of my employees were not showing up but were on the viewing of assigned direct deposit prior to transmitting to Intuit.  I didn't know what to do but to tell it to keep assigned number and now of course I show duplication of DD#'s on about 5 Direct Deposit Payrolls.  My concerns are whether this is going to cause me problems somehow and also whether this is something that I need to fix so this doesn't happen again.  I successfully transmitted payroll to intuit but I'm freaking out that some of my employees payroll is messed up.  Help please!

 

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for joining us, @TP4093.

 

I have some information about assigning a check number for Direct Deposit paychecks. As mentioned by my peer @jamespaul, you'll want to make sure the Assign DD numbers option is checked on the Enter Payroll Information screen. It's located under CHECK OPTIONS. With this, there'll be no duplicate check numbers in your register.

 

Meanwhile, just check if there's no duplicate payroll or paychecks for your employee. Only duplicate payroll or paychecks will affect your records.

I'm also adding this link here to help you in reconciling payroll transactions: How to reconcile payroll: A step-by-step process.

 

Keep me posted if you still have questions or concerns with payroll. I'll be around to help. Have a good one.
