An e-check transaction shows delayed as the status. What does this mean?

Processing time for e-check transactions causes the varied delayed status, Gmadden1. Let me provide additional information about it.

 

When you start using a QuickBooks Payments account for the first time, there will be a delay of up to five business days. These deposits take longer as we set up your account. Once the setup is complete, rest assured that you will be on regular funding time.

 

Moreover, if you have been using the QuickBooks Payment, the processing time is influenced by the time of day. The deposits will be available in your bank account the following day if you've completed the check transaction before 3 PM Pacific time. On the other hand, if the processing occurs after 3 PM PT, the deposit will take two business days to be completed.

 

Know that if you're using a free ACH Bank Transfer payment deposit takes about 2 - 7 business days.

 

Additionally, I've included some helpful resources that offer more details on delayed payment reviews:

 

 

Don't hesitate to return to this thread if you have any other questions with your e-check transactions, Gmadden1. I'll be sure to answer them once I get your response. Keep safe!

I have been using quickbook desktop for several years and my ach payments have never been delayed until about 6 weeks and now 3 to 4 of the accunts are delayed every week. Why the change. These are not new accounts. I have been doing them for quite some time and now all of a sudden delayed status?

Read my previous post. After calling QB about this "Delay" issue and getting 4 different answers they finally said that on July 15th, QB changed the way they fund the money.  From July 15th any "manually-keyed" E-checks will take 5  business days (1 week) to process.  However, when you send an invoice to your customer and let customer pay the invoice, the funds will be available sooner, 2-3 business days.  QB made it sound like it was an improvement designed to safeguard your account.
