I am trying to set up Direct Deposit on Quickbooks desktop 2019 for a client but when I fill out all the info and hit submit nothing happens.  It doesn't take me to the next page nor does it say if there are errors. We've tried to set up on different computers, but every time I hit the button and nothing happens...any suggestions?

Greetings, jtram58.

I can help you with setting up your client's direct deposit in QuickBooks Desktop 2019.

 

When setting up a direct deposit in QuickBooks Desktop, you'll need to make sure that all the information is filled out especially the Industry type. As an initial step, let's review the form before hitting the submit button.

 

Here's how:

  1. From Employees menu, select My Payroll Services, and choose Activate Direct Deposit.
  2. Complete and review the form. When asked for zip code in the legal company information, enter the 5 digits only without the extension.
  3. In the Verify Your Company Information section:
    • Edit the Legal Company Name and Address to add the Industry
    • Select the Industry that most closely reflects your company's main business.
    • Edit the Payroll Administrator Information and confirm the email address.
  4. In the Enter Your Bank Information section, enter the bank account information that Intuit QuickBooks Payroll debits for direct deposit transactions and fees. This is your bank account that you use to pay your employees.
  5. Select the View Agreement link and read it.
  6. Select the I have read and agree to the terms of service agreement checkbox.
  7. In the Check Security Limits section, answer the questions provided.

This answer is technically correct - but

I suspect that for the majority of those who seek this answer:

It is the INDUSTRY field of the form that is causing this issue.

It is HIDDEN until the EDIT button (upper right of the form) is clicked.


All the other fields show up and we can see them and can fix when they are wrong or blank

The Industry field is _*HIDDEN*_ from us until we click on the EDIT button .  It is (at least on my screen) the _only_ field hidden from view.  And there is really no reason anyone would suspect it is there to be found.  One would suspect that the Edit button was only to change pre-filled fields, not to show up the one and only hidden field we didn't know was there to begin with.

I thought that this was not my issue as well but it was! Thank you! Even though the industry was filled out, it only let me submit when I selected edit, it then cleared my industry and asked me to enter it again, then it submitted. 

 

If you are having this submitting issue and think that because your industry is already listed you don't have to edit the field - You probably do!

I am having the same issue!  I have tried everything suggested in this thread and nothing works!!!  If this ISSUE has been going on since 2019 - then why hasn't it been fixed????????????????????  I am trying to set up a new client to start Direct Deposit in the new year and this should be an easy thing to do as it was in the past.  What has changed?

FIX THIS NOW - no excuses - shouldn't have to call you or you call me - JUST FIX IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  We pay a lot of money for this to work!
