With the recent changes, where did the list of Vacation Pay options get moved to?

Previously, we could see all of the Vacation Pay types and who had them. Not sure where that went with the updates?

Hey there, @cindyahc.

 

I'm happy to take a look at this with you today.  For QBO Payroll Enhanced:

  1. Click on the gear icon.  
  2. Select Payroll Settings, then Time Off Policies. Here, the time-off options should display.

Can you tell me a bit more about the changes you're seeing? If you can provide a screenshot as well, this will be helpful in discerning where to direct you. Thanks for clarifying these things for me, I look forward to hearing back from you!

Thank you for your response.  This is where is used to be.  Time Off Policies is no longer an option under Payroll Settings.

Thanks for getting back to us, cindyahc.

 

Cache helps your browser or device's background processes run smoothly. However, it can also cause unexpected results when piled up such as display. Here's how to get rid of any cache-related concerns:

  1. Open a private browser and log in to your account. It uses but doesn't store cache.
  2. If you can already see that Time off Policies,  we can go back to your regular browser and clear the cache.
  3. Other supported browsers are good alternatives, too. Each of them uses a different cache.

If the same thing happens, I'd recommend contacting our Payroll Support Team. They can pull up your account and further review the situation. You can reach them through this link: Contact Payroll Support.

 

Let us know how this goes so we can assist you more.

I'm not sure how clearing the cache is going to help me see this option.

Hello there, cindyahc. 

 

Whenever you visit a site there are data that are saved in the cache and can slow your computer and frequently visited sites such as QuickBooks. Troubleshooting and removing them can troubleshoot and helps to increase the loading time of web pages and increases their performance. 

 

If you've done the steps provided by my colleague and you get the same thing, I'd suggest reaching out to us so we can investigate it further. A link was provided by my colleague above, I'll be attaching it here again. 

 

If there's anything else that you need help with. You can always post them here. Take care!

I cleared the cache and cookies.  I still have no idea where to look for this information.  I'm guessing it was changed/removed during recent updates.

Hello again, @cindyahc

Thanks for trying some browser troubleshooting with us!

Are you able to provide that screenshot so we can take a look at what you're seeing? This would be really helpful to discern what may be going on. 

 

In the meantime, as a workaround, you could run Vacation and Sick Leave report. This would show each employee and what type of PTO they have assigned, but that won't allow you to add it to a new employee.  Let me show you how:

  1. Go to the Reports tab from the left menu.
  2. In the search field, enter Vacation and Sick Leave.

I look forward to hearing back from you!

These are the options under Payroll Settings. Time Off Policies is no longer there.

So...I don't know what I'm missing.  That is what the screen looked like before recent updates.  Payroll settings no longer takes me to that page.  That is exactly the page I am trying to find!  There isn't a Preferences option under the new Payroll Settings.  Was it moved elsewhere?

This is happening to me as well - WHERE DID THE OPTIONS GO?

I think it's because they removed if for those of us who have Quickbooks Online Premium.  When they merged with TSheets and made it under one billing, a lot of our functions went away (as far as I can tell).  I think we would have to get the Online Enhanced.
