Live Chat is crap.  There is no live chat.  It's just an auto program that keeps sending you to worthless information. I've been trying to add a new employee for a week now and still can't get it to work.  I've had nothing but problems since change from TSheets to Time.  I think they changed the name to Time because it's time for me to look else where.  I don't have time to sit here on the phone waiting or typing this message.

Good morning, @martens2003mcd. Thank you for coming to the Community with your issue. I'm happy to look into this with you.

 

At times when there's a longer wait time than usual, the chatbot tries to suggest articles or ask probing questions while you wait. This is to help the support agent once you're connected. I completely understand that your time is valuable though, so I'm committed to helping you as much as I can here.

 

The first thing I'd like to know is if your QuickBooks Time account is connected to QuickBooks Online or Desktop? If it is, are you adding the employee in those products and then syncing them over to QB Time? 

 

Let's also have you check for any other profiles of that employee that may exist or one that has the same email. Maybe a vendor profile or a duplicate profile. That can prevent the new profile from syncing over.

 

And lastly, any screenshots or error messages you're getting are a huge help as well.

 

Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing back from you!

Two years later, same problem. Why does QB pretend there's a live chat when it's merely sending a bunch of worthless irrelevant articles that don't address the problem?  Why has QB's certificate for Time expired?  Why am I expected to become a computer program to fix the fact that the program doesn't update, either manually or automatically, when it's supposed to?  Why am I, the customer, expected to update QB's expired certificate?  Why is there 'OVER AN HOUR" wait on your phone que?  Why am I still a QB customer?

Hello @martens2003mcd ! I just wanted to follow up and ask if you got help with your employee? Let me know, I'm happy to help!

100 percent identified Time sucks. Tsheets was so good, quick, reliable, and trustworthy. I am adding my 4 employees and the same BS. I just can't stand it anymore. I am looking for other track time up. This is ridiculuos.

Hey there, @carlazenis

 

Thanks for following the thread and sharing your concerns. Please know that it's our goal to get you back business every step of the way. 

 

I went ahead and checked out your account. I didn't find any reason or errors that would block you from adding employees. With that being said, could you provide a little more details about what happens when you try adding employees? Are you getting an error? Would you mind sharing a screenshot? 

 

On the other hand, while checking your account, I did discover an error message for an employee's payroll items. To resolve this, let's re-sync the payroll items. I've included the steps below. 

 

 

First, let's have you run an import from QB Time.

  1. Log in to QuickBooks Online as admin.
  2. Go to the Employee's profile and click on the edit pencil
  3. Reassign that employee different pay item(s) in their profile. Save.
  4. Afterward, assign the correct one(s) back to them and save.

This will prompt the integration to realize a change was made and it needs to re-sync those fields. 

 

Once you're finished, it's important to run another import within QB Time like before and those payroll items should map.

 

In the end, check the Payroll Items Mapping Tool to see those pay items. Then you should be able to successfully export their time.

 

I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your response and look forward to chatting with you soon. Take care and have a wonderful day!

Thanks for joining this thread, jtban.

You can cancel your QuickBooks Online subscription while signed in.

Here's how:

  1. Sign in as an admin.
  2. Use the Gear (⚙️) icon, then go to Account and settings.
  3. Access your Billing & Subscription tab. If you don't see this area in your available tabs, it means you subscribed through a mobile app store. You'll need to cancel it in the appropriate store.
  4. In your QuickBooks section, click Cancel subscription or Cancel online. In the event you're canceling a trial, select Cancel trial.
  5. Follow your onscreen steps.

 

If you're having trouble cancelling a subscription and would prefer to work with our Customer Care team, you can get in touch with them while you're signed in. They'll be able to pull up the account in a secure environment and assist you with cancelation.

 

Please don't hesitate to send a reply if there's any questions. Have a lovely day!

Hello there, Ledgers26.

 

I've got you covered on extending the subscription of your QuickBooks.

 

Ideally, you should be prompted to resubscribe as soon as you sign into the QuickBooks Online company. If not, you may follow these steps:

 

  1. From the Gear icon, select Account and settings.
  2. Go to the Billing & Subscription tab.
  3. Click Resubscribe and enter the updated billing information.
  4. Select Subscribe.

 

If you have a QuickBooks payroll subscription and you want to resubscribe, you can check this reference: Reactivate your QuickBooks Payroll subscription.

 

That should do it, Ledgers26. I'll be around if you have other QuickBooks concerns. I've got your back!

@accountant46 

Which QBO region do you have? Another option, how much does your monthly subscription cost?

Hello, 

 

Incognito doesnt work, One question though if I undo reconciliation manually can I reconcile it again thru the reconciliation button?

 

Thanks,

 

Maureen 


Thanks for coming back. Let me help you share some insights about reconciling your account in QuickBooks Online (QBO), accountant46.

 

I appreciate you for performing the recommended solutions provided by my colleague to get this sorted out. If you are trying to access QBO with more than one browser tab simultaneously, here's the correct way to work in more than one tab:

 

  1. While signing in to QuickBooks Online in one tab, go to the browser address bar. 
  2. Highlight then copy the entire web address.
  3. Open a new browser tab.
  4. Paste the web address into the new tab then press Enter. The home page of your company will now load in the new tab.

 

Then, try inviting your accountant to review your books in QBO again. If you reconciled a transaction by mistake, we can remove individual transactions from the reconciliation. Then, reconcile them back to get a new report. Keep in mind, even small changes can unbalance your accounts. To minimize the impact, we can only unreconciled one transaction at a time. If you need to completely start over, I'd suggest reaching out to your accountant since they have a tool to undo everything in one go.

 

Unreconciling your transactions mean replacing the (reconciled) mark with (cleared) or blank. You'll want to do this to all transactions within the period covered in the report. When you know which transaction you need to change, here's how to edit and unreconciled the transaction:

 

  1. Go to the Accounting menu, then select Chart of Accounts under Your Company
  2. Select the account you're working on, and click on View Register.
  3. Choose the transactions you want to unreconcile.
  4. Keep on clicking the status until it shows blank or cleared (C).
  5. Click Save.
  6. Close the account register.

 

Here's an article you can refer to for more details about undoing and removing transactions from reconciliations in QuickBooks Online. If you encounter any issues while reconciling, you can check out this article to learn about fixing it: Fix issues at the end of reconciliation in QuickBooks Online

 

Feel free to check out this article for more information about the reconciliation workflow: Learn the reconciliation workflow in QuickBooks.

 

You can always update us after performing the steps as I want to ensure this is resolved for you. I'll be standing by for your response. Have a great day and keep safe.
