Glad to have you here in the Community, @ajones1980. I'm here to help you import your payroll data to QuickBooks.
How data migrates to QuickBooks Online (QBO) depends on the features available in the integrated app. If you can't import payroll data, consider creating a journal entry instead. This way, we can ensure that your payroll transactions are inside the program. Follow the steps below to create a journal entry.
Here's how:
- Click + New.
- Select Journal entry.
- From the first line, select an account from the Account field. It depends on if you need to debit or credit the account. Enter the amount in the correct column.
- On the line, choose the other account you're moving money to or from. Depending on if you entered a debit or credit on the first line, enter the same amount in the opposite column.
- Check the amounts - you should have the same amount in the Credit column on one line and the Debit column on the other. It means the accounts are in balance.
- Enter information in the memo section to know why you made the journal entry.
- Select Save and new or Save and close.
Moreover, I suggest working with your accountant for proper guidance on selecting the affected accounts when creating a journal entry.
Also, you can look for a third-party application that can help import your payroll data by navigating the QuickBooks App Store.
Finally, I have a link you can read for additional guidance in managing your transactions in QBO: Categorize online bank transactions.
