Buy nowHello, I use QB Desktop payroll. I updated several values for medical insurance and SEP IRA for the new year using the payroll setup. When I check the values under "Payroll Items", they are all correct for all items that have changed. But when I create the paychecks, last year's values are still populated in the paycheck. I have installed the latest payroll update. Thanks for any help!
Solved! Go to Solution.
I appreciate your time and effort in installing the latest payroll update to fix the incorrect calculation of payroll items in the paycheck, @vivlund.
I want to ensure the values of the insurance payments and retirement contributions populate correctly in your paycheck.
One of the possible reasons why the updated values of your payroll items aren't populating correctly on the paycheck is that the amount entered on your employee's profile for that specific payroll item is different. You'll want to review the amount of the payroll item showing on your employee's profile. Here's how:
If they aren't the same, update the amount and rerun your payroll. However, if the amounts are the same, you can revert the paycheck to calculate the correct values.

Come back to this post and let me know how it goes, @vivlund. I want to make sure you're taken care of.

Thank you much for your help. After following the instructions and getting to step 4, the values were not the same in the Additions, Deductions, and Company Contributions section on the payroll info tab. I changed the values there, and now the values are populating correctly when I run payroll.
Thank you, Mark! I followed the steps, and when I got to step 4, the values were different for that employee. I updated those values and now the paychecks populate correctly.
It's a pleasure to have you here again, @vivlund.
