Join nowHey All,
I have a client that wants to track their best paying locations through the perspective of how much payroll paid out to employees at different locations. There's employees working at different sites so I'm running one Direct Deposit check for each respective site the employees work at. I wanted to use tags to differentiate between locations but I can't put a tag on a Direct Deposit expense transaction for review because then I would be double counting such transaction since the Direct Deposit was issued through QuickBooks Online (QBO) and the chart of accounts automatically reconciles those. Furthermore, if I try to match the "for review" expense transaction to the correct Direct Deposit in QBO, then I can't place a tag on the transaction to track it.
Anyone come across this or know a system that would help me track such activity. Much appreciated

It's nice to have you here today, @Accountingnexleveltax.
Adding tags to direct deposits in Payroll is a great functionality. However, this feature is unavailable.
You're correct that your transaction would be doubled if you assign classes through the For review window since it was automatically reconciled by QuickBooks.
Meanwhile, using QuickBooks Online Plus subscription, you can track important information in Locations and Classes.
Class tracking specifies a different class for each detail line of a transaction while Location tracking allows you to assign a location to an entire transaction. It's also used to group data from distinct firm locations, offices, regions, outlets, or departments.
Additionally, you can look into these articles that will help you learn more about classes and location tracking in QuickBooks:

Hey Kevin_C,
Thank you for your speedy response and I've sent a feature request as instructed. So what I'm gathering is that I can use location tracking on a transaction and if I wanted to change the location of a direct deposit expense that's getting matched to internally ran payroll direct deposit then I can assign a location to the transaction when it goes through the "for review" section of banking? Furthermore, can I generate a report comparing the transactions tracked to different locations?
