Just so you are aware, I had to switch payroll processing companies due to the inability of QBO Payroll to import time entries from a 3rd party timekeeping system. The effeciency of such an import is saving me 2 hours per payroll. Your development team need to understand that this lack of import functionality is costly QBO customers. 3 years and counting since this thread started and the request got into them. Clearly this is not a priority for the dev team, and given the amount of time lapsed, will likely not get done in the next 3 years either.
