@how do I print a vendor credit  That is a fairly broad question; do you have any specific concerns about multistate employees?

Yes, I have one employee who works some hours in one state and some in another.  How do I handle creating paychecks in the same payroll period for 2 different states and only 1 employee.  Is there a work around in QB Desktop Payroll?

@how do I print a vendor credit  There are some options, though I believe not as many as there once was.

 

For instance, way back when, Desktop allowed you to have multiple profiles for one employee. I think they did away with that in newer versions; got all fussy about allowing two employee profiles to share a social security number.

 

Probably the most basic, if slightly inefficient, approach would be to simply create a paycheck for their hours in the state they are currently set up for in their Tax settings, then update the Tax settings to the other state and create an additional paycheck for the same time period for the other state's hours.

 

As mentioned, that may be unwieldy, if for no other reason than overtime tracking.

 

I suspect the user most likely to know old shortcuts in Desktop would be @BigRedConsulting  so I'll tag them here.

 

May be worth your time to go ahead and identify which year of QuickBooks you're using. It may be that QB 2022 would still allow you to have duplicate employee entries; it's still alive, payroll-wise, until the end of May 2025.
