** If an account number does not exist in the system chart of accounts, that line item will error and not import. If an account is inactive, the data will import but will not be visible on the screen because the inactive account will not show on the active payroll’s list of account codes. If the inactive account exists on the pay register tab, that tab’s fields will be populated with the import.
