Give it a Few Days. Sometimes when your direct deposit doesn't show up as planned, the reason is simply that it has just taken a few extra days to process.
Contact Payroll. If your money isn't where it needs to be, contact your payroll department or bookkeeper -- whomever cuts the checks.
Contact Your Bank. It's good to call your bank and let it know what's going on. ...
Talk to Your Boss. It's important to keep your boss in the loop. Your boss might be able to help push things along or look into things other people can't.
A direct deposit (or direct credit), in banking, is a deposit of money by a payer directly into a payee's bank account. Direct deposits are most commonly made by businesses in the payment of salaries and wages and for the payment of suppliers' accounts, but the facility can be used for payments for any purpose, such as payment of bills, taxes, and other government charges.
When making a direct deposit by means of electronic funds transfer, the payer also normally enters reference information to make it easy for the payee to recognise who made the deposit and which account to credit. The reference may be an account number, an invoice number, the payer's name, or some other meaningful identification. To ensure that the payee is aware of the deposit, the payer commonly follows up by sending to the payee a remittance advice.

Thank you. But that is NOT the problem that I am experiencing. Our internet is quite fast. The problem is that the DD activation is asking all sorts of personal questions about our client. Our client does NOT have online banking, therefore, I am manually updating the DD banking information. This should NOT take as long as it has been trying. I put aside all my other work and let the DD spin around and around and around for 2.5 hours. I got so disgusted with it that I finally closed it out. I have tried this at various times during the early morning hours, during the day, as well as late into the evening. I can assure you that our internet is NOT the problem. The problem is that all of a sudden QB is making demands on the 'agents' to tap into their clients personal information and that is not how DD is supposed to work. The route that the DD used before was simple and not a problem at all. Now, all of a sudden, it's a huge issue. So putting any internet speeds behind me, there is NO plausible reason or solution to fix this in a timely fashion. As of now, I have chalked up more than 15 hours of trying to do this. In my world where billable time is how I survive, this was a total and complete was of 15 hours.

No solution. The router and/or internet IS NOT THE ISSUE! It's a QuickBooks issue!

I am having the same issue with trying to set up 2 direct deposit payrolls. After being on phone with support for over and hour still no resolution. This have been going on for almost 2 weeks. When will it be resolved? I will need to look at other software companies for direct deposit and move my 100+ clients with me if this isn't resolved. Please advise

I have spoken with Support and they created a ticket on Monday however the issue is not resolved. They claim it is a software wide issue however a new client was able to be set up direct deposit so it is not a software wide issue. I must get the 2 payrolls set up direct deposit ASAP they have been waiting over 2 weeks now but continue to receive error something's not right please try again later and it should work. After trying dozens of times it still doesn't work.

You'll need to escalate it to a higher tier employee-- we sometimes have this problem, especially if the client had someone else doing payroll for them through QuickBooks.
A direct deposit (or direct credit), in banking, is a deposit of money by a payer directly into a payee's bank account. Direct deposits are most commonly made by businesses in the payment of salaries and wages and for the payment of suppliers' accounts, but the facility can be used for payments for any purpose, such as payment of bills, taxes, and other government charges.

To ensure that the payee is aware of the deposit, the payer commonly follows up by sending to the payee a remittance advice.
The direct deposit facility is often better known by country-specific payment systems used to action these payments such as the following:
Giro in most of Europe
ACH Network (ACH) in the United States
Direct entry in Australia
Only the higher tier employees can get it done, which means you need to ask the first person you get to escalate your case.
