Getting error 15270 when updating payroll
My employees have found a loophole in the Beta version that is allowing them to go in and change their times. On the original version, they do not have permission. Called QBT support and they suggested asking my employees not to use the Beta version....I have no way of stopping them from using BEta and short of manually going in and timekeeping, recording, and changing time I am not sure what to do. This was the purpose of QBT was because of the ease and convenience. Thank you for any suggestions and feedback.

My payroll date is every other Monday. Due to the nature of our business, it is not possible for me to have the total hours worked for the pay period on the Thursday before payroll as required by QBs. My account is set-up for direct deposit. I would like to run direct deposit, but not do the deposit through QBs, rather manually enter at my bank. Or is it possible to run as checks and change the check number to the direct deposit numbering? Does that make sense? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
I am having trouble creating Tax Form Worksheets in Excel. This feature used to work and now I keep getting this error : Quickbooks error -2147221000: Mehtod 'get module of object IRunningInstanceInfo failed There is no information on this specific issue so I did go to extreme of uninstalling and reinstalling both Quickbooks and Microsoft office. I have also allowed ALL macros to run in Excel even though the suggested mode is to run macros from apps with active certificates - apparently the Quickbooks certificate is expired. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!
This is mostly for my understanding.My QBO has (4) payroll liability accounts set up. These (4) accounts are sub accounts of "Payroll Liabilities" which I see totals the (4) liability accounts. The accounts are as follows: "Payroll Liabilities" Payroll Liabilities>Federal Taxes (941/944) Payroll Liabilities>Federal Unemployment (940)Payroll Liabilities>MD Income TaxPayroll Liabilities>MD Unemployment Tax When I issue a paycheck(I'm using enhanced payroll subscription), the withheld amounts from each check are stored into the correlating liability accounts mentioned above - this much I understand. I then also have an expense account called "Payroll Expenses:Taxes".My question is how to categorize payments of these taxes when I pay them quarterly. So, when I write a check to pay for example my quarterly Federal taxes(941), how do I categorize this transaction? Do I post it to the mother liability account "Payroll Liabilities
Business pays for cell phone service, but not new phones. Employee would like me to take out the monthly payment for his cell phone from his check once a month.
Hi all So to begin, I have QBO and signed up and pay to have the 2-day funding time for direct deposit. The issue is that because I did not use that service for the first year I was in business, it was suspended and set to 5-day funding. Last year my company grew rapidly and now that I have a crew and have good income, I am unable to pay my guys on time using direct deposit. I print checks every week. I don't receive time cards in until Monday or Tuesday, I run payroll Tuesday and payday is Friday. The 5-day funding does not allow me to get my guys paid on time. I have located the elusive link for the request for faster funding time and earlier this year spent HOURS a week, weeks in rows on the phone with QB associates to fix this. It has not been resolved. No one can tell me why my requests aren't succeeding. I have had help with every single step. I have 6 months of statements, multiple (albeit late) direct deposit payments to show history on the account(because yes I am set up
We have an S-Corp where my husband is the Owner. His medical insurance premium is paid 100% from the company account. We have an employee who is currently on our Sec 125 Cafeteria Plan. Our company policy is that the company pays 50% of his premium (only him, not spouse or family). The employee is paying the remaining 50% for his premium and 100% for his spouse's premium. If he becomes a >2% Shareholder, what are our obligations? Keep the same percentages, or are we obligated to pay 100% of his and/or 100% of his spouses' premiums? My understanding is that a >2% Shareholder can no longer participate in the pre-tax advantages of the Sec 125 plan. The CPA we consult for our accounting issues did not know the answer. I use QuickBooks for our bookkeeping and payroll, plus I use TurboTax Business for our tax returns.
Hello, We use QuickBooks Desktop Pro 2019 with QuickBooks Enhanced Payroll. I just ran our quarterly Unemployment Insurance - Quarterly Contribution Report Worksheet for our state and the form automatically generated by QuickBooks showed a contribution due of $102.63 based on our wages and contribution rate. This amount was validated as correct on our state website when I submitted the form data and was given on the payment page to make that contribution. However, the Pay Liabilities tab of our Payroll Center in QuickBooks Desktop rounded up to $102.64, so now I show a $0.01 balance for this liability which is incorrect. What is the best way to clear out this incorrect liability balance amount? Thank you!
Hello, My Colorado Famli Tax Deduction was not set up correctly originally in QB Desktop for the first 2 payrolls run in 2023. I have corrected it so that it is calculating correctly now but it was calculating $0 for the previous 2 pay periods. How do I edit this so that my total amount will be correct for the quarter? On the next paycheck, is there a way to add the missing amount that was supposed to be deducted in the first 2 periods so that my quarter total will be correct? Will QB Desktop automatically correct for this at quarter end? We only have 4 employees so I am happy to calculate by hand and go in and correct but I don't want to if it will mess things up further. Sorry, I am a novice at this. Please advise and thank you for your help!
I have QBooks Desktop Pro v2021.I wish to do manual payroll as I only have two employees besides myself.I have been doing payroll on a monthly bases for a couple of years but now I have an employee that can't make the transition. I have been paying through Zelle bc it's easy.Bank feeds causes debits in my bank register using "Payroll Expense" as the account.The 4 or 5 debits equal her month paycheck that has all the info for the tax man.Problem is that I didn't pay her twice and need to figure out how to make it look right.Should I simply delete the weekly entries?Or should I make some sort of General Ledger thing to make them disappear.?
Our company offers insurance. It pays a portion and the employee pays a portion which is deducted from their paycheck. I have a deduction set up for the employee and it goes to the insurance expense account; not a liability acct.Once a month, the insurance automatically deducts the amt of the insurance due from our acct. I write a check to record the transaction in the check register; (debits . credits the insurance acct)I have heard pros & cons. Some are saying the employee portion has to be a liability while others say just make a wash and this shows the true expense to the company as well.So...whats the correct way?
We run payroll through QBO and I'm new to it.We have 2 employees who are under the company paid insurance. 1 employee gets paid monthly. His monthly company-paid premium is listed as a payroll item on his monthly paycheck.1 employee gets paid weekly. His monthly company-paid premium is divided by 4 and listed as a payroll item on his weekly paycheck. I know there are month's with 5 weeks, but didn't know how else to split it up. How so I convert these payroll items into a monthly bill to reconcile with the bill we receive from the insurance company? I want to pay the monthly insurance bill but don't want to double-enter it. And, is there a better way to do this overall?
have an employee that pays child support thru garnishment. When posting my 'Enter Bills' and 'Pay Bills', how is the check to child support posted?
I currently have it setup so that we have multiple 'services' that we perform and bill the customer for (rigger, rigger overtime, rigger doubletime). We punch these against projects using the enter weekly time ticket so that when we go to invoice they can be carried over to the invoice easily. That seems to work great.However, when I go to punch payroll, regardless of whether I put it to overtime or doubletime services, it still puts the hours in the employee's regular hours.I manually move the OT/DT hours to their proper categories in the payroll section, and hit 'save for later'. When I come back, the OT/DT hours are still in their proper columns BUT it also reset the regular hours to their original totals, meaning all the OT/DT hours are doubled. I am essentially unable to use the 'save for later' feature because of this, since I would have to fix time for 15 employees every time I use it.Is there a better way for me to be doing this or is this a known issue?
I wanted to post a message about a recent scam that we encountered. We received an email from an "employee" asking to change their direct deposit details. Not knowing it was fake, my coworker sent the blank form to be filled out. We got it back, changed the banking details, processed a payroll and the fraudster got my employee's money. We were able to figure out on payday that it was a fraudulent request. I'm working with my bank and the fraud bank so hopefully we can get this scammer stopped. That's not the end. We received another emailed request to change banking information but now we're on to them. This is something I've never heard about so I'm just posting to as many places that I can so no one else is duped. Lesson learned-verify before you act!
Previous payroll (last one of the year) did not deduct all taxes. Checks were distributed. Should I just manually add to the deductions on the next checks (first one of new year)?
How do I change an employee's "reimbursement" that was added to gross wages?It should not have been added to gross wages or had Social Security and Medicare taxes taken out.I was able to make a liability adjustment to the SS & MC but when I put in an "adjustment to "Income Subject to Tax"" (like in #7 instructions below) it does not change the wages for that employee on the payroll summary report (which means the W-2 is incorrect as well).Any ideas on how to really "Adjust" the wages? It is for 2022 and I have not sent in 941's or W-2's yet and time is not my friend right now. Thanks for any help! Step 2: Adjust your payroll liabilitiesGo to Employees, then Payroll Taxes and Liabilities.
