Thank you for providing additional details and for your patience with this matter, Okie129. The reason you’re not seeing the option at Step 5 to edit the classes directly from the paycheck is likely due to this being a prior payroll. However, you can still correct the assigning of classes by adjusting your Accounting Preferences directly in the Payroll settings. I'm here to walk you through the steps.

 

By following these steps, we can assign your prior paychecks to their appropriate classes:

 

  1. Log in to your QuickBooks Online company.
  2. Click on the Gear icon at the top right corner.
  3. Select Payroll Settings.
  4. In the Accounting section, click on the pencil icon to edit.
  5. Click the pencil icon beside Class Tracking and assign the appropriate classes.
  6. Make sure to Save your changes.
  7. After updating the accounting preferences, go to Update transactions.  
  8. Select the appropriate date range to ensure that these paychecks are now correctly classified in your P&L by class report.
  9. Once everything is done, click Save.
