• Exports payroll details directly to QuickBooks Online.
• Supports direct deposit and manual payroll entries.
• Automatically creates journal entries when payroll moves to the "processing" status, if the Auto-Push feature is enabled.
• Maintains an accurate General Ledger by mapping payroll categories to your Chart of Accounts.
