The account and detail type varies by the region where your QuickBooks Online (QBO) subscription is registered, Carol.

 

Since the European QuickBooks Online (QBO) account includes both Management Compensation and Payroll Expenses as account detail type, you can consider matching it with your US QBO account, which only has the Payroll Expense account.

 

Here's how to change it:

 

  1. Log into your QBO account.
  2. Go to Gear icon ⚙, then choose Chart of Accounts.
  3. Look for your account using the Management Compensation detail type.
  4. Click on the drop-down icon, then choose Edit.
  5. In the Edit Account panel, select Payroll Expenses under Detail type.
  6. Once done, click Save.

However, in doing this process, I recommend seeking advice from your accountant to ensure your books comply with its region. If you don't have one, our QuickBooks Live Expert offers the best bookkeeping practices to enhance your efficiency in managing your chart of accounts.

 

Return to this thread if you have additional inquiries about managing your chart of accounts in QBO. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your response.
