Hello, Angela.
I can see how human resources (HR) support can aid you with your payroll needs. I'll share some information on where you can look for this kind of service for QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) Payroll.
You're correct that HR services are currently available only from an Intuit partner with QuickBooks Online Payroll (QBOP). But please know that whenever you have any QBDT payroll-related concerns, like managing employees and taxes, you can always let us know here in the Community, reach out to our Desktop Payroll Care team or your accountant.
On the other hand, you can also visit our QuickBooks App Store to check for popular and accredited HR applications to help you complete your payroll tasks.
Additionally, you can run, print, and customize payroll reports to get a closer look at your business finances, employees, and taxes. To do these processes in QBDT Payroll, you may want to check out this article for your reference: Run payroll reports.
Please let me know if there's anything else you need or questions about managing employees and payroll taxes. I'm always ready to help. Take care, Angela.
