Question

All of a sudden, my contractors that are marked for 1099s in QBO have appeared in my Time approval list in Time. How do I remove them from the approval list?

You can remove them by archiving their profiles in QuickBooks Time. Go to Time in your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account and select Go to classic QuickBooks Time. From there, open My Team, find each contractor, click the three dots icon, and choose Archive. This pulls them out of your approval workflow without affecting any existing time data.

 

As for why they appeared, when a contractor is marked for a 1099 in QBO, the integration automatically syncs them into QuickBooks Time as team members. To prevent this from happening again, go to Feature Add-ons > Manage Add-ons > QuickBooks Online Integration > Preferences and turn off Import contractors as team members.
