We currently process our paycheck with continuous form checks and blank paper paystubs in the desktop payroll. Is there a way to do this with the online payroll?

Hello there, @BarbNeal. I'm here to guide you through printing your paychecks and pay stubs seamlessly in QuickBooks Online (QBO). It'll be just a few clicks away, and you’re all set. 

 

With online payroll, you can print paychecks or pay stubs for your employees. QuickBooks prints checks for employees who receive checks and pay stubs for those who receive direct deposit.

 

First off, we need to set up your pay stub printing preferences:

 

  1. Go to the Gear icon ⚙️, then select Payroll Settings.
  2. In the Preferences section, select Paycheck Printing.
  3. Select Plain paper stubs (to accompany handwritten checks), then tap OK.

 

Once done, here's how to print them:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu, then select Employees.
  2. Select Paycheck list.
  3. Select the paychecks you'd like to print, then select Print.

 

You can click this link for more steps regarding other versions of QuickBooks Online Payroll. This includes instructions for Intuit payroll products.

 

Preprinted checks need to be compatible with the program to ensure they will print correctly. That said, you can order them here. Take note that you'll need to have your payroll set up before you can print a paycheck.

 

Step 1: Set up your paycheck printing preferences

 

  1. Go to Gear icon ⚙️ and select Payroll Settings.
  2. In the Preferences section, select Paycheck Printing.
  3. Select Preprinted QuickBooks-compatible voucher check stock.
  4. Select Print 2 stubs or Print 1 stub, then select OK.

 

Step 2: Print paychecks​

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu, then select Employees.
  2. In the My Payroll section, select Paycheck List.
  3. Select the paychecks you'd like to print, then select Print.
