I've got your back, H1638.
Reviewing the payroll setup and making sure the correct account is selected will normally post the transaction to the correct business checking. Here's how:
- Go to the Gear icon and select Payroll Settings.
- Click Preferences.
- Select Accounting Preferences.
- In the Checking Account drop-down arrow, check and select the correct account.
If the correct account is already selected, I'd recommend creating a journal entry. This transfers the transactions to your checking account. Before proceeding, please consult your accountant for proper guidance. If you don't have one, you can use our Find-an-Accountant tool to look for an expert near you.
Here's how to create a journal entry:
- Go to the + New button.
- Select Journal entry.
- Fill in the needed details to create your journal entry.
- Click Save and close when done.
Also, I'd suggest contacting our QuickBooks Support Team. They'll be able to further investigate why QuickBooks automatically recorded the tax payments in your savings account.
Additionally, I've added an article that'll help you review bank and credit card transactions and put them in the correct accounts. This ensures your record is accurate: Categorize and Match Online Bank Transactions.
