We are a fiber installing company and have multiple crews running in different states that are constantly moving around.  How can I do taxes for them in the state they worked instead of the state they live in?

I can definitely help you out with setting up additional states for your employees, @broberts33.

 

In order to do this, you'll need to add a new work location in the employee's profile. Once done, you can then assign them to the other workers. 

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu, then choose Employees.
  2. Locate and choose the employee's name.
  3. Click Edit under Employment.
  4. Go to the Work location dropdown and select New Work Location.
  5. Add the work location address. Use a physical address and not a P.O. Box.
  6. Press OK then Done.

 

Assign the employees to the new location.

 

  1. Open the employee's profile.
  2. Click Edit next to Employment.
  3. Add the correct work location from Work Location.
  4. Select OK/Save.

 

Once done, you can contact our QuickBooks Payroll Team for any multi-state fees before processing payroll. They'll be able to pull up your account and check if there are additional charges or things needs to be done after setting up the locations.
