You've come to the right place for assistance, Hrstar. Let me help you change the employee's email address in QuickBooks Online.

 

When managing employee information, if they've set up and were invited to QuickBooks Workforce, updating their email address details inside QuickBooks won't automatically apply its changes to the online workforce. If their Workforce accounts are already active, they can update their info directly within their accounts. Here's how:

 

  1. Let them sign in to Workforce.
  2. Go to the Gear icon and select Account Settings.
  3. Select the Sign-in & Security tab.
  4. Click Email address.
  5. Enter the new one and confirm it.
  6. Select Save. A confirmation will be sent to the new email address.

 

Keep in mind that they'll need to use the new email address to log in to Workforce and access their pay stubs. Then, make sure to update their information on your record. 

 

Moreover, once everything's good, you can employees can check out their pay stubs and review their W2s.

 

We'll be available in this forum if you require additional assistance managing and updating employee information in your account. Feel free to let us know in the comments below. Keep safe!

Thank you for the reply.  However, this solution will not work.  The email that is input is not correct.  So, the employee cannot sign in to Workforce.  The email needs to be corrected.  Please advise.

Thanks for keeping us updated, Hrstar. Changing the employee's email address for viewing your pay stub is quick and easy.

 

We can update it from the employee's profile in QuickBooks Online (QBO). I'd be glad to show you how:

 

  1. Go to Payroll from the left menu and choose Employees.
  2. Click on the Employees tab.
  3. Select the employee's name to open the Employees Profile.
  4. Click Edit to update the email address.
     

Once done, try resending the invitation to the new email address. Then, your employee will receive a new invitation. You can refer to this article for more details about how your employees get access to their paychecks and W2s: Invite employees to see pay stubs and W-2s online.

 

I've also included this helpful article to learn more about the Workforce and how it works: View your paychecks and W-2s online in QuickBooks Workforce.
