Hello,
Please take note that although it's possible to delete a deduction from an employee, there isn't currently a way to remove a deduction item from Payroll altogether. However, there are alternative solutions that we can explore. Instead of deleting it, we can also edit and unassign. Here's how:
- Go to Payroll, then select Employees.
- Select Edit payroll items
- Select Pay types or Deductions & contributions to see your list of payroll items.
- Select the payroll item you want to change
- From the employee you want to change, select Edit. Then select Unassign employee.
Moreover, if you really want to delete all items listed in your system, I suggest contacting payroll support to delete them. Here's how:
- Sign in to your QuickBooks Online company.
- Go to Help (?).
- Select Contact Us.
- Enter your concern, then select Let's talk.
- Choose a way to connect with us:
- Start a chat with a support expert.
- Get a callback from the next available expert.
- Ask the community to get help from businesses like yours.
Additionally, if you need your payroll items to make changes, you can find step-by-step guidance in this helpful article: Manage your payroll items in QuickBooks Online Payroll.
