'Run payroll' doesn't work

I'll make sure that you can pay your employees, A715.

It's could be that the accumulated cache in the browser is preventing you from running your payrolls. To isolate the issue, you can perform some basic troubleshooting steps.

You may start by accessing your QuickBooks account in a private or incognito window. This mode doesn't save web searches and cookies. Feel free to uses these shortcut keys:

• Ctrl + Shift + N for Google Chrome
• Ctrl + Shift + P for Firefox & Microsoft Edge
• Command + Shift + N for Safari

Once you're in, try processing your payroll again. If it's now working well, go back to your regular browser and then clear its cache to delete the accumulated junk files. Switching to other supported browsers can also help fix this issue.

However, if the issue persists, I'd recommend getting in touch with our technical supports. This way, we'll be able to pull up your account in a safe environment. Then, check the status of your previous case and investigate this issue again. Here's how:

1. Go to the Help icon.
2. Select Talk to a human.
3. Enter "Talk to a human" again in the search bar.
4. Choose I still need a human, then click Contact us.
5. Select Get a callback or Send a message to start a conversation.
