I've come to share insights about exporting payroll transactions from QuickBooks Online (QBO) to QuickBooks Desktop for Mac, @GoodScout.

You can make changes to your payroll preferences at any time. The Export option should be available in the Payroll Settings window under the Auto Payroll section. Please see the screenshot below for your reference.

However, since you've already cancelled your account, you can no longer utilize the said option to export your payroll transactions to QBDT for Mac. You can learn more about this through this article: What happens to my QuickBooks Online data after I cancel?.

With this, you can either manually export your payroll reports (if you still have the option to do so) to get the data you need or contact our Payroll Care team to give you other options to achieve your goal.

For the complete list of payroll reports and how you can customize them, please see this article: Run payroll reports.

Also, to further guide you in managing your payroll transactions in both QBO and QBDT for Mac platforms, I'd recommend checking out one of our Help pages: QuickBooks Support. Please select the appropriate product from the Select a product section. 

Please don't hesitate to comment below if you have other concerns about exporting your payroll data from QBO to QBDT for Mac. I'm always ready to help. Take care, and I wish you continued success, @GoodScout.
