Thank you for dropping your question here in Community, @terridpage_66.

 

You need to ensure all direct deposit transactions have cleared before changing the bank account. You can verify this by contacting our Phone Support Team.

 

To reach them out, simply click the Help button in your QuickBooks Desktop.

 

To change your direct deposit bank account, here’s how.

 

Add your new bank account.

 

  1. Select Lists, then Chart of Accounts.
  2. Select the Accounts button, and then select New.
  3. Select Bank, and then select Continue.
  4. Enter your bank account information
  5. Select Save & Close to save your changes.

 

Once done, you can now update your bank information in Payroll.

 

1. Select EmployeesMy Payroll Service, then Accounts/Billing Information.

2. Sign in using your Intuit Account login.

3. Go to Payroll Info section. Under Direct Deposit Bank Account select Edit.

4. Enter your payroll PIN then select Continue.

I receive the message "Oops Something Is Wrong" when I try to login through Quickbooks.  I am using the correct id and password.  When I try to reset it, I get the same message.  I can log into my intuit account on line, but it does not allow me to change my DD account there.

Through this thread i think I figured out how to change the account but have an issue with when I can do it.  I appreciate any help you can give me.  I processed payroll yesterday, Monday.  Direct deposits should come out tomorrow, Wednesday.  I need to change the direct deposit account for next weeks payroll.  If I change it tomorrow will that give enough time for it to be working on Monday?  I am new a doing direct deposits!!

 

Thanks

Thank you for joining the thread, Pamela.

 

You can change a bank account for direct deposit as long your you don't have pending payroll. It may take several days to review the process from requesting a change of bank account to verifying the account and changing the default bank from your preferences. To verify if it is safe to update your bank tomorrow, I recommend connecting with our Support Team. An agent can review your account securely and give the turn around time during the update.

 

For more hints about updating a bank account for payroll, you can check out this link: Change your payroll bank account.

 

In case the update isn't complete yet, and you need to pay your employees. You can continue running payroll through a temporary paper check. I'm adding these articles for your hints about removing the direct deposit option from your paychecks and process a regular check:
