Welcome back, @liketabasco.

Currently, the newly created employees will no longer default to billable when entering a weekly timesheet in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

I know that this option could save you time when creating timesheets for new employees. While this option isn't available, I encourage marking the Billable checkbox manually to make your employees billable.

Furthermore, I suggest submitting feedback directly to our product engineers. They may look into this suggestion further and consider adding the option in QBO. To submit feedback, you can go to the Gear icon and select Feedback. Then, enter your suggestion and click Submit Feedback.

You can also visit our Customer Feedback page. This will help you track the status of your product request and get the latest updates from our developers. Updates such as how the recent enhancement made to QBO helps our business owners, like you.

Please touch base with me here for all of your QuickBooks needs, I'm always happy to help. Wishing you all the best.
