How to fix Unable to Create Annual Payroll Reports in QuickBooks

[hobaso4007]

Hi everyone,

I’m having trouble generating annual payroll reports in QuickBooks. Whenever I try to create them, I encounter errors or the reports don’t seem to compile correctly. This is crucial for our year-end processing, so I’m eager to get this resolved.

Here’s what I’ve attempted so far:

• Verifying that all payroll data is up-to-date
• Checking for software updates
• Reviewing report settings and filters

Despite these efforts, I’m still unable to produce the reports as needed. Has anyone else faced this issue? Any tips or troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your help!
