Employees and payroll
Recently active
I'm currently using Quickbooks Pro 2023 accountant edition. When preparing NYS-45 for the 4th qtr the employee name and wages no longer is being calculated and filled out. Part A and Part B is populated but not Part C.
In January 2024 we made a payroll liability adjustment for taxable life insurance from 0.83 to -0-. On the employee's W2 the adjustment is reflected correctly in box 1 wages but not in box 3 Social Security wages, box 5 Medicare wages and box 16 state wages. What entries do we need to make so that the same amount is showing in all 4 wage boxes?

Pennsylvania wants all w2's uploaded via a .csv or EFW2 file. How do I convert my w2'S to a csv file?
I have a particular project set up in QBO where employees working on this project will be earning a different wage than regular (prevailing wage). I have created the additional pay rate for each applicable employee within their profile. Now, I need to be able to assign this pay rate to the project in QuickBooks Time so that when the hours are exported back to QBO, the correct pay is assigned for just the applicable hours and is tied back to the project expenses. Generally, an employee is not spending an entire pay period working on this one project, so I can't just map the Prevailing Wage rate that I created to the Regular time field of the Payroll Item Mapping Tool.
How do I easily view employees by class? Could easily do in QB Desktop.
Been on the phone with QuickBooks support for over an hour with no help. I have 2 contractors that I have been paying through the contractor tab in quickbooks online. The payments have been categorized as payroll expenses. I am trying to create 1099's for them and Quickbooks indicates that because I do not have these payments categorized as services that I don't need to issue 1099s. This is not true, I need to issue 1099's because services are being rendered. Which expense categories will register as services if I create a sub account underneath them? These payments are for our CDO and a developer.
For the past year and a half I have been trying to get Quickbooks to resolve an issue with Unemployment Insurance. After talking with the state I had a good understanding of what the issue was. The state put together a letter explaining the situation to Quickbooks, and also included a snapshot of our account. I have talked to many agents, and spent countless hours on the phone trying to fix this issue and I don't know what else to do at this point. Our Arkansas state Unemployment Insurance is considered Reimbursable which means we owe $0 to the state. Quickbook pulled out over $5K from our non-profit account to pay unemployment insurance. The accountant at the time did not notice this error. Since the state billed $0, no money was ever received to the state of Arkansas. They have verified this. They also said that this has been an issue with Quickbook in multiple instances. They said that Quickbook pulls the money in another a
In South Dakota, the only state employment tax is the State Unemployment tax and a couple "re-employment" department minor tax items. The problem now is that one of the minor tax items is not appearing in the tax liability totals ... and I'm at a loss to understand why. I've looked in the Payroll Item List and all of the items that are part of the State Tax reporting group look ok to me ... I've attached a PDF with the three items highlighted and they all look ok. The Re-Employment Assistance and the Investment fee show up just fine in the Payroll Liability totals, but the Administrative Fee does not show up. On the Payroll Summary report, however, all employees show that there IS a calculation total for the Administrative Fee. So if the system is calculating a total for this on each payroll for each employee, why is the total not being included in the Payroll Liability???? I'm confused, (Well, that happens every so often, but .....) I would appreciate any suggestions o
The State of Indiana has told me that the IN WH-1 voucher was in error. and has to be corrected by Intuit
Hi everyone,This is my 1st time trying to do payroll with my company paying an employee's 401k. I have it all set up in payroll & followed an online tutorial for set up so I think I've done it ok. Here's my issue. I sent a test $10 deposit to the 401K bank account. I can see the transaction when I run a payroll report as a payment of $10 to the employee. When I open the pay check detail I can see the test $10 & the account line I set up for it in the other payroll items & also in the company summary showing the company match. My issue is when I go to reconcile, that $10 debit is not showing as a debit from the company bank account. Instead it's showing as a zero'd out transaction in the credits/deposits window of the reconcile. So my reconcile is off. How do I fix this? Can anyone help me please? Thank you in advance for any help in this matter.
My W2's were aligned on January 9th when I did previous W2's for client. Now trying to print 2 W2's and get one aligned and other does not align. Spent 2.5 hours trying to resolve this with Quickbooks case number help.Rebooted, realigned, repaired and on and on with 2 different techs trying to get this resolved. Their solution? Use W2 forms from Intuit. My forms are from IRS and have worked with several other clients. The IRS forms I am using are the same ones I used when the forms did align previously. It appears to me that a line was deleted in coding the W2 spacing when the new QB update came out. Did anyone get real help with this issue?
I cannot run payroll because there are red triangles on each employee.It states that a payroll report was filed too early, I may have clicked to submit State Unemployment for 2nd quarter (?). How can I remove the red triangles and run payroll?Thank you,Wendy 115
We just recently migrated from Desktop to Online. In Desktop, we had it mapped out so that the total we paid our pastor would automatically print in Box 14 of his W2 along with a description of "Housing." I just noticed that QB has already automatically filed our W2s and W3 for 2024. I saw that the housing note and total was NOT printed in box 14. I was just told by the CSR on chat that QBO will not place any of that info in box 14. Is that correct?? Why in the world did I upgrade only to have less data!!!
I have to file and print up payroll tax info from 2023, but I no longer us QB. How do I do that, please?
Can't find how to get a schedule c. Checked help topics and the most common things businesses seem to need yields no results. Can anyone here tell me how to get this?
I need to report Medicare waiver wages in Box 12 with the code II. However, that is not an option in the list nor can I override to add it. How can I get this added?
Has anyone in Arizona processed their A1-R form yet? Mine has the correct numbers for 2024, but generates a 2023 form. Unfortunately I didn't notice it until after I had submitted it for e-file. Anyone else have this issue?Thanks!
While preparing the 940 for year end, we got an error of overpayment. The FUTA paid for the first 3 quarters of the year totaled an mount that was $0.01 more than the amount that was calculated as due for the year. We did not have any new employees in Q4 and all the other employees had met the base calculation numbers which generated a $0.00 payment due for Q4. In processing for the final 940, QB is showing an overpayment of $0.01 and dropped a -0.01 on line 16d. of the 940. This causes an error message: "Form 940 Quarter 4 liability should not be negative or have a zero." How do we make this -$0.01 go away so we can complete and submit the form 940?
I am seeking recommendations for processing 130+/- W2s. My new bookkeeping client used ADP, Decision HR, and an online payroll calculator at different times during 2024. Since I cannot add last year’s payroll data to their new QuickBooks Online account, I need to merge different data sources for each employee and use a W2 processor. I saw SSA has a free service but for only 50 W2s. Plus, I have seen ads for TurboTax (which would be my preference if easy and inexpensive), Tax Bandit, and more. Any thoughts in terms of ease and cost? Also, they have minimal access and reporting available from previous payroll services. Would I need the Payroll Summary and/or Payroll Register to complete data collection and process the large W2 batch? Any other guidance would be very appreciated!
Thank, Rich
How do I set up an employee who works and is paid in two different states?
Here I am again, spending hours on the software I pay hundreds of dollars for each month-but I cannot find my employees' W2s anywhere. I have tried every possible troubleshooting mentioned by the Google searches I've done and nothing is coming up-there are simply no W2s. Anywhere. My New Year resolution is to get rid of Quickbooks Payroll because it's not worth the hassle and stress this platform causes me on a regular basis. This is maddening to an already very busy business owner.
