You should consider the information given below before proceeding with the steps required for QuickBooks direct deposit set up for employees.

Direct deposit bank account information of your employee must be always entered from a check. A deposit slip must never be used as deposit slip’s information is not valid for direct deposit purpose. Account information that you have to enter must be of the U.S., as outside the U.S., different automated clearing house processes are employed, and these external processes do not correlate with QuickBooks Desktop.

In case of payment cards, you should contact the card provider for seeking account number information and routing. If you want to use a money market account of your employee for the purpose of direct deposit through QuickBooks, you have to make sure that the money market account of your employee accepts Automated Clearing House (ACH) transactions. Your company’s employees have to check with their banks whether their money market accounts are savings or checking.

If in case, your employee’s account is a savings account, then he or she has to get the account routing number from his or her bank. If your employee’s bank tags your employee’s account like a money market account, you have to tell your employee that only checking or savings accounts are accepted by QuickBooks Desktop, and so he or she should select checking account.
