Changing Direct Deposit Account

Hi. Anyone having issue trying to change the direct deposit bank account for the business. I am having an error and it has been weeks trying to figure it out with QuickBooks.

You’ll need to update QuickBooks to edit direct deposit bank information. To update QuickBooks, go to Help > Update QuickBooks Desktop.

Hello there, Patricia Silva.

Can you tell me the exact error message you're getting when updating the direct deposit account?

In the meantime, let's make sure that we have updated QuickBooks to the latest release. Let me guide you with these steps:

  1. From the Help menu, select Update QuickBooks Desktop .
  2. Go to the Update Now tab.
  3. Select Get Updates.
  4. Once downloaded, restart QuickBooks.
  5. Accept the option to install the new release.

Afterward, let's try updating the direct deposit account again. I've added this article for more information: Change Your Bank Account.

Feel free to get back to me if there's anything that I can help. Keep safe!

Hello, Patricia Silva.

I appreciate taking the time to get back to us, and with the screenshot. Here are a couple of ways to help you resolve the error message when changing the direct deposit bank account.

This is likely caused by an outdated QuickBooks release (or payroll data), or there's a damaged component within the program or the file itself. In this case, have you tried updating your program as what the error message pointed out? If not, here's how you can do it:

  1. Go to the Help menu, then select Update QuickBooks Desktop .
  2. Go to the Update Now tab.
  3. Ensure you've checked the payroll-related and critical options.
  4. Click Get Updates .

After updating, process the direct deposit bank change again. If you're still getting the error message, you'll want to run the Tool Hub to fix this. This article can guide you with the steps: Fix common problems and errors with the QuickBooks Desktop Tool Hub.

Alternatively, you can use the Direct Deposit Bank Change Form found in the article provided by Adrian_A. Expand the QuickBooks Desktop section, then follow the instructions in the Notes box.
