How to Set Up an Employee for Direct Deposit in Quick Books?

Attendants, who want direct deposit, have to fill out a Direct Deposit Authorization form and give you with a voided check from their bank. This form is for records only and a user doesn’t need to submit it to Quick Books Desktop. A user can easily set up, edit and remove DD for his attendant’s using this software.


Here in this blog, you will learn how to set up DD for attendants. The instructions are as follows:

  • Turn on your computer/laptop and make a double-click on the icon of Quick Books to open it.

  • Open your Quick Books software and go to Employees tab from the main menu bar.

  • Click on Employee Center from the available list to open the employee list.

  • Make a double-click on the name of the attendant.

  • Now, select the Payroll Info tab to open more options.

  • Next, click on the Direct Deposit button to move further.

  • Thereafter you have to select Use Direct Deposit for (attendant’s name) under Direct Deposit section.

  • In the next step, select number of accounts from Use 1 Account or Use 2 Accounts.

  • Now, the financial institution information about the employee is to be entered like Bank Name, Routing No. Account No. and Account Type.

  • If you want to choose to deposit Two accounts then you have to enter the amount or percentage that the employee wants to deposit to the first account in the Optional Account box. Then the remainder will go to the second account.

  • Finally, select OK button to save the information.


Note: After saving the above information, the next paycheck you generate for the attendant will be marked for DD. If you want a direct deposit of a paycheck which you have already generated but not sent, then you must remove the paycheck and recreate it.


A user can update the attendant’s bank account information on the same page where he set it up. A user must do this prior generating a paycheck for the attendant. Paycheck generated prior you updated the attendant’s account info will be deposited to the old account. To prevent from this, remove and recreate the paychecks prior sending them to intuit.
