I had to pay an employee by cash. I know I can make a JE to enter the data into the G/L, but how do I get the paryoll information into their record so their W-2 is correct?

At your service, pdewes.

 

You can use the manual payroll feature in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) to record your employee's pay.

 

Using the Help option on your QuickBooks, you can manually enter payroll.

 

Here's how to go about it:

  1. Open the Help menu. Then, select QuickBooks Desktop Help.
  2. From the search field, enter Manual Payroll and hit Enter.
  3. Hit the Calculate payroll taxes manually (without a subscription to QuickBooks Desktop Payroll) link. 
  4. From the Set your company file to use the manual payroll calculations setting section, hit the manual payroll calculations link.
  5. Hit the Set my company file to use manual calculations link.
