Employees and payroll

When I click the link for "efile State W-2" in the payroll center I get an error message about a file not being found (image below). If I access state W-2 via the Employees menu I get an error message the Excel can't be found. I've updated both QB and Payroll and reinstalled Excel but I keep getting the exact same result. This is with QB Pro, 2021 with Enhanced Payroll and Windows 10. I successfully efiled my state W-2s in 2022 with the same setup except that I had an older version of Excel. I'm currently using Office 365. Any ideas?
Every week, I need to run certified payroll reports for various projects. Every time, I first get the screen where I have to enable macros. They questions for Intuit would be WHY? The question for the community is "Has anyone found a way to not have to do this each and every time, many, many times, over and over and over again?" (I'm guessing you can sense my frustration by now!) Please tell me I'm just being dense and missing something obvious. Thank you!
QuickBooks Online Payroll is adding Stipends before calculating Retirement Contribution. Retirement Contribution is supposed to be calculated on Payroll only, however, QuickBooks Online Payroll is calculating the contribution on the TOTAL in the top "Pay" section! It should be a % of Payroll... not % of Total

I think it is thinking I don't need to process a payroll since the pay period dates were incorrect for some reason?
Disability payroll item how to enter the employer contribution amount?
I have been accidentally paying employment security taxes for the owner of the company. They have notified me that, we have a credit as you don't have to pay on the owner. I have 4th quarter taxes due now, but on the employment security site, I used the credit and my balance for the quarter was $0. Now in QuickBooks, I still have a payment to make but don't want to mark it paid as it will show that balance being subtracted from the checking account. Is there a way to create a credit for this payroll liability? Thank you
There does not seem to be an option to re-align the 1099s like there is the W-2s. Is this an oversight? Will it be an issue if things are partially printed on the red areas?
I have been asking if I can get more pay type fields to add hourly rates in to. Need about 25 for each employee. Currently I utilize all the standard lines such as Overtime, sick, bereavement, and jury duty. In the other pay types I have union employees so they have multiple types of codes for example, Night OT, Night DT, Evening OT, Evening DT…. That is just to name a few and give you a general idea.
I need specific setups to: 1 - make it to be a tax free reimbursement to the employee; and 2 - code it properly to hit the W2 Box 12, Code FF.The existing guidance on the forum is not solving this for QB Online.
On the page shown attached it asks for an Unemployment Insurance (UI) rate, but does not specify if it is the Employer rate, the Employee rate, or both!? Terrible explanation of this cell in the website/on the page. Anyone know conclusively which rate should go here?
Greetings, I have been issuing paper checks for one employee as their payroll method of pay, and recently I got the amount mistyped on 2 of the checks. For instance, net pay for one of the weeks was $1,365.62, and the check was issued for $1,365.36 (26 cents difference), and the other net pay for another week was $819.10 and the check was issued for $819.36 (again, 26 cents difference). Now I can't connect 2 bank transactions, because they don't match the payroll. What is the best solution in this case? Thank you in advance!
Greetings, I have a following problem with the payroll. I have 4-6 employees that I run payroll though direct deposit for every week, and one of the employee started to get an error when processing his direct deposit. Here is a headline of the email that I get right after I run a payroll: "Urgent Issue with the Payroll Account for [company name]". The body of the email is the following:"Dear [my name]:We are unable to process your payment of [amount] to [employee name] by direct deposit.For this payroll only, we changed the pay method for your employee to paper check. Please print and deliver a paper check to your employee on 01/05/2024.If you want to pay your employee by direct deposit contact us immediately for assistance.

I have setup my payroll item for the CalSavers deduction according to the QuickBooks instructions. Even though it seems to be acting as a post-tax deduction (the taxes seem to be calculated correctly) it is showing up with the pre-tax deductions and affecting the adjusted gross income. With this deduction being a % calculated on the gross income there is no option to have it deducted from net income. This will most likely create a problem on the W-2's at the end of the year. Has anyone found a way to deal with this.
We have been using both QB Desktop and QB Time/Workforce for years now and have found more and more that after syncing the time, the worker's comp code is not auto-filling on the time sheets/payroll screens. It is very time consuming to manually enter them all for 100+ employees. Why does this happen and how can it be corrected? Yes - we have run all the updates on both payroll and desktop sides.
Under pay types, I have a health/dental reimbursement pay type. It is going to the wrong accounting account. Under the gear>payroll settings>account setup I do not see a place to change which account it books to. Can anyone help? Dan
I added payroll after I had added the mobile app does that create an issue?
We have a very small company that we run from our home. Only one of us gets paid and that's my husband. His name is entered in the payroll setup page twice. Once with his SSN and once without. When I try to do his W-2 form, the name without the SSN comes up. I want to go into Payroll setup and delete his name that does not have a SSN. How can I do that? It won't let me. Is there another method that I can use?
What are best practices or proven solutions for clients that have incorrectly mapped their payroll to a non-existent bank account? The result of which is that the payroll is coming out of this erroneous account. The payroll is also coming out of the correct bank account through the bank feed. I have considered the following: a journal entry to remove the incorrect balance, or merging the two bank accounts and matching the bank feed. Any other suggestions or solutions?Thank you!
Wiil the OHIO IT 3 automatically be e-filed when the OHIO IT 941 is e-filed?
You people are absolutely ridiculous. Does it ever end? First of all, people are having trouble getting direct deposit confirmation emails, sometimes the direct deposit doesn't even work properly and now you are saying that the fee for the direct deposit checks is going from $1.75 to $4.00 per check. You do realize that some people who use the direct deposit platform are small businesses. They cannot afford to pay this!On top of that you are doing away with enhanced payroll for any new businesses. If we have any new clients, we are not going to tell them to pay an exorbitant fee for Quickbooks Desktop nor will we tell them to purchase Quickbooks On Line which is not user friendly and people hate it, we will tell them to purchase a different bookkeeping package. Congratulations on upsetting people all across the United States. I hope you are happy!
We are brand new to Quickbooks. We invited our employees so they can set up their Quickbooks account and view paystubs. One of our employees is getting something that states "Looks like you don't have Workforce. There's no account attached to the email you entered. Contact your employer to create one for you." There is definitely an email because Quickbooks emailed her the invite. Can you think of what might be causing this issue?
