Hi. I have a salesperson (and will be hiring more) working in a contract position. He will be selling our products/services. We want to pay them on 1st and 15th of the month. They are working on a purely commission basis and will be receiving 20% of the money received from sales they make -- so if the client signs up for installment payments and then flakes, I can only pay them the 20% of the money received from the sale, or some similar event occurs. How do I keep track of who sells what (and therefore who we owe and how much we owe them)?Can I arrange it so they're automatically paid on the 1st and 15th for the money received from their salesOr should I have them invoice me?Is there anything else I should be aware of and make provisions for in this circumstance?
We use QuickbooksDesktop with Payroll Enhanced, and have recently setup 401K with Guideline with a 360 sync between QB and Guideline. However, on sync we saw that guideline incorrectly filled out some Payroll Items. We have contacted Guideline team and waiting for them fix things on their side; however, a question has come up - how do we vet things that get updated due to the Guideline sync. The problem is that we don't know where to find a list of QB changes that were made as a result of that sync. It appears that both the Audit Trail and the Payroll Detail Review report, but report on logs of actual transaction changes. Instead, what we need is a log of what a given sync w/Guideline changed in our QB: these are non-transaction changes, primarily Payroll Item changes, but maybe other changes as well (we don't know, since we can't find such a log). Given that now we now know that Guideilne sync can have bugs, we need to have an internal process of efficiently vetting their sync ch

So the company is based in a state with state withholding. The employee is fully remote, working from their home (permanently), in a different state. I see the option in QB Online Payroll to change the default work location from our office to a location I can add. In this instance, would I enter their home address? (QB payroll has not been terribly helpful- foreign rep opened a "case" but that can take 4 to 6 weeks for a response). It's affecting their W2 as the home office state is showing in Box 15/16 (we did exempt them so no state tax was withheld for our home office state location)- yes, we know they can file a nonresident return and not have to owe tax, but that is a pain for employee. I played around with adding an out of state location and can see that it would then correctly assign them and eliminate that state tax box (their home residence state has no state income tax). So (1) has anybody done this for remote w
When you add commissions to an employee, is there any way to assign it to a customer/job? I want to track commissions in my profit and loss statement, and this is the only way I can think to do it. Any tips?
missed entering a 2023 payroll. how do we go back and change the w-2 and 941and 940
Is there an additional charge/fee to electronically file W3/W2 through QuickBooks.
Can I e-file my W-2s directly from QuickBooks Accountant Desktop using Enhanced payroll if I have to send more than 10 without going through the SSA BSO system. The software answers are not very clear.
One of our employees received a raise, I cannot find where to put the effective date of the raise.
Hi, We use Quickbooks Payroll Automated filing and the W2 for 2023 was filed shortly after 1/1/2024 by QBO. The employee thereafter updated the W4 for 2023 showing a change in address from NY to NJ. We now have a mismatch between the W2 and W4. It seems we need to update the employee address in the W2. My question is when we change the employee address in the W2, will this lead to retrospective tax liabilities for the employer? In this case all state taxes were filed for NY instead of NJ. Needless to say we will be filing the correct taxes for NJ in 2024. However, what will be the tax implications for the employer for 2023?Thanks in advance....
I have just know found out that I have to add health insurance premiums paid for my 2 s-corp owners and each other's life insurance premiums to their wages so that they appear on their W-2's. I am panicking because I don't know how to do this and I don't want to delay processing everyone's W-2's while I try to find this out. Can someone please give me a "crash-course" on the simplest way to do this?
I dont see any option to add "Voluntary life" under Deductions in QBO Online
How do we access W2s after switching to online Quick Books payroll? I've been trying to communicate through customer service and am VERY baffled . Almost like Intuit is really not the parent company of both quick books online and quick books desktop ....I'm shuffled back and forth and left without an answer. Surely there is a way to access this information after paying for the service for 20+ years.
I've setup the direct deposit for paying myself payroll from Quickbooks Checking account to a personal outside bank account. Even though it says 'Direct Deposit' in Quickbooks it seems the payroll I just ran created a physical check (to be mailed I assume?) since the direct deposit payroll is not yet in the destination account. I believe I just need to verify the external bank account in Quickbooks however I cannot find where to do this anywhere. I do see that Quickbooks sent the external checking account a test amount to verify but I don't know where to find the place in Quickbooks to actually verify the destination bank (thinking this is the gap for why my direct deposit status actually still cut a physical check to be mailed). Help?
I have a client that pays her employees bonuses and then tells me afterward. How can I record these bonuses under the correct employee in QBO so that it shows up on their W-2 at the end of the year?
I am using QB Desktop. I have one employee who has a Workforce account from a prior employer and used a different email address than what I have. When I click on "Invite Employees" she is listed as already Signed Up and it shows her old email address. She was able to log into her Workforce account and changed the email address, but I was still showing the old information and she cannot see the recent paystubs that were generated. She just deleted her workforce account, and the situation remains the same. What can she or I do to resolve this?Thank you.
