When I enter payroll hours and then click "save for later" then go back in there, none of the information I entered is saved. What am I doing wrong?

Would like to know this answer too!

Good day, lawanda1 and kimatuet.

I'm here to make sure you can find your saved payroll information in QuickBooks Online. 

What we need to do is to go back to the Employees page, then click on the Run payroll again. That way, you'll see the payroll entries where you left off.

Please see attached screenshot:

You can also check this article wherein important information you need to get started with payroll tasks, paying your employees, and taking care of taxes: Get started with Payroll.

I'll always be here if you have any other questions with navigating QuickBooks.
