Employees and payroll

After over a year of calls and chats with Intuit support and getting nowhere, I'm reaching out to the community to see if anyone has a similar problem and figured out a way to get through the byzantine payroll tax resolution process. We use Quickbooks Assisted Payroll. Since Q3 2023, I've received a quarterly notice that they are unable to file or pay our Oregon taxes because the paid family leave isn't set up correctly. I've confirmed many times with support that it is set up correctly. I've been told everything from, delete the entries and put them in again and it will be fine next quarter (it wasn't) to this was never escalated to the payroll tax team so we're doing that now and you should hear back from them in a few days (that was in July and I've never heard from them) to today's call, I can't help you because the tax team only responds to emails (they don't). So I've been filing and paying my own OR quarterly reports for 5 quarters with no one seemingly able to f
I have a trucking company and my drivers get a percentage of the loads they deliver I am in Oregon and we have to show hours worked My question is how do I show hours worked on a percentage pay ?

I have an employee that currently has a loan with the company. A check was cut to the employee, and that was setup in QB desktop. They have been paying the loan back a set amount per paycheck. However, I want to forgive the loan, sort of like an end of the year bonus. Should I just journal the loan balance to the bonus account? What is the best way to put this in the books?
The recent software change in payroll is creating havoc for me. Employees track time in t-sheets at a class level for billing purposes, however all payroll needs to be recorded to a single class. The new software is allocating payroll across all classes.
We just switched from a sole proprietorship LLC to a S Corp. We now have to pay out wages and max out our SIMPLE IRA before the end of the year. I am not on payroll and just take member draws as my income. How can I pay my simple? Also, my wife is my employee, and we would like to max out her SIMPLE. Is there a place on payroll that is available for this?
We accrue vacation based on hours worked. For example our most senior employees accrue 120 hours a year based on hours worked. Each hour worked accrues .0577 vacation hours. We have an employee who has taken his full 120 hours as of October. Once his balance went to zero the system began to accrue additional hours. He has now accrued a total of 161.43 hours year to date. He should have not accrued additional hours once he hit the max of 120. The Vacation Report clearly shows year to date accrual of 161.43 hours, 120 hours taken and 41.43 hours available balance. He should have ZERO available balance. Attached is a picture of the pay policy setup as well as the expanded vacation accrual report showing his details to date. I assumed the system used the maximum allowed field and some internal year to date accrued field to limit the year to date accrual to the maximum allowed. How does the per hour worked method actually
Some basics to get started. Quickbooks Online user here. I have the Core Payroll. I use the automated tax filing and payment option. Back on March 15th, I received an email stating QB was going to be enhancing the Core Payroll package by offering automated New Hire reporting if you had the auto tax filing/payment option turned on. Either I'm a dense, or I cannot seem to locate any indication this feature is engaged and working on my behalf. I can log into my State's New Hire Reporting Center (Virginia), and when running a report on their site to show the new hires reported, nothing comes back for the last several months. I'm now worried QB hasn't been doing this, and I've let a good 4 months of new hires go unregistered. No degree of searching the QB website is helping. Didn't know if any other Online users with the core payroll package might be able to assist. I feel a call to Support is likely in my very near future. Thanks to anyone who may be able to chime in an
everytime i try to add my employee it says either that it cant send invites or that they are in the system, but i havent been able to add any one to my employee list
An employee received a salary increase in November. I want to create a paycheck to pay the employee retroactive to the beginning of the year. What is the best way to do this so that taxes are taken out properly?
Will the employee Date of Birth field be required to be entered to process W2s for 2023 (e-file or print)? If it is only used for employee benefits within the program can you use a random date?
Hi, I deleted an invoice that I created to a customer. It was a part of a check that needed to be billed to one of our other companies. I would usually go to the bill and uncheck the billed status, but with this paycheck there is no such column. How do I restore those billable time/costs? I use QB desktop enterprise.
Using QB Desktop Payroll.I need to process a payroll run for 1 employee without any withholding.How do I remove the withholding items for the selected employee?
I payroll check the have a payroll check that was supposed to be for $1657 but check was made out and cleared the bank for 1675. how do I correct this issue so the account can be reconciled. I thought a general journal entry would correct the issue but it didn't correct the issue
Hi, Our company is spinning off half of our operations into a separate entity with approx half of our current employees. I would like to export selected employees personal data, pay rate and tax withholding information from one company file and import it into the second company file. I am trying to automate it so that I dont have to type manually (prone to human error). I have tried the SaasAnt transaction application and it was helpful in moving the employee's personal data but I havent figured out how to transfer their pay rate and withholding/tax settings. Anyone have a suggestion on how to export/import payrate, payroll withholdings/tax settings at same time as the personal data?
I am needing to re-issue some paychecks that were never cashed and are now stale. They are from previous years, and are stale. There are many answers that address this issue, but those solutions are not complete - or I am missing something obvious. The re-issued check that needs to print must have today's date - so it can be deposited. All of the other answers to this question don't address this need. QB does not let you change a paycheck date from a prior year - which makes sense. So I am not sure how to get a replacement check into the hands of my employees that has a current and usable date on it.
I need to adjust the tracking of payroll expenses to our chart of accounts. I can't find the settings that allow me to do that. Can anyone help?
I have had Quickbooks for over 20 years. Today I wanted to utilize my direct deposit option for my employees. I had used it a few years ago but stopped. When doing payroll, I was asked for my pin so it could send my data. I put my pin in one time and it said it was wrong. I did it again and it said I was locked out. I reached out to support and after a long conversation, remote access, the service person was all over my program pointing to various things, sort of talking in circles, and said my file was 91% corrupt and once it reached 95%, I would lose everything. Even if I continue to back up my program twice a week as I do. He said the cause was clicking the 'x' up in the corner to close my program. Then said it was a power outage. In order to fix the program, he came back with a cost of $2070 for a one time fix, $2900 for a two year program or $3900 for a three year program to cover. What is going on? He was extremely rude, very pushy and all I had asked is if my pin can be reset. H
I have a company where the two owners pay themselves once a year, and since they do it for an even amount (example: $2000), but it needs to be run through payroll, I have to use QBs payroll to calculate net pay, instead of gross. The only way I could find to do that in QBO, which I need to use instead of the previous years' QBD, is by paying them each a "bonus" check - but when I did that, the checks seemed to be created and are printable in the Payroll Center, but those transactions are not appearing anywhere else in QBO.I triple checked the bank account and date of those checks, and still the actual transactions aren't appearing in the check register or in transaction search. But when I go to the Payroll Center, I can see that they exist, and I can print them - they just aren't actually affecting the books somehow!?What is going on?
How do I find the entire year of payroll liability payment history. my desktop is only showing payment history going back to May, I need to see All of 2024 thanks
I thought I saw it all but in Oct we had three pays with SC withholding tax. These taxes are always remitted to the state of SC on the 6th of the month following the payroll. On 11/6 I saw that only 1 of the 3 amounts withheld in Oct were remitted, so I called and opened a case . Showed the GL and explained that there was still $1139.14 due from October payrolls. The rep goes back and forth with the payroll tax dept (I'm not allowed to speak with them). Finally after an hour (probably to get me off the phone) they say the $1139.14 will definitely be paid to the State of SC prior to 11/15. I ask for an email stating that fact (never received an email).Today, 11/15 no tax payment to SC made. I call back and am on the phone for 2 hours. Their answer today is that 1) agree we missed the payment (why?), and 2) we cannot make it now because we missed the window for automatic payments, so you, the Customer, can go log into the State of SC and mak
