Thank you for posting here in the Community, dmiller4. 

 

I'm here to share information on how you can provide access to your authorized to manage your payroll in QuickBooks Online.

 

QuickBooks user roles are customizable permissions you can give your team. You can manage their roles and limit their access to specific tasks. You can also choose what users can see and do within different areas of QuickBooks. 

 

However, assigning a user to do payroll only isn't available in QuickBooks Online.

 

In the meantime, feel free to visit these articles for additional details and references when managing user access in QBO:

This didn't answer the question.

The question was if someone can be given access to enter hours without seeing how much people make.

I would like to know that also.

Hey @Inquizitive6, how's it going?

 

Ideally, it is possible to grant access to enter hours in QuickBooks Online. However, assigning a user role to access entering hours or even running payroll without seeing how much people make isn't available. 

 

Furthermore, users can be set up as standard users with limited access to specific tasks like entering hours without being able to view sensitive information such as pay details. This access control feature allows for task-specific permissions, ensuring that users can perform their designated tasks without accessing confidential information.

 

If you want to set up user-type access, follow the steps below:

 

  1. Select Settings ⚙, then select Manage users.
  2. Find the user you want to edit, then select Edit in the Action column.
    • You can change the user role from the Roles ▼ dropdown.
    • You can't edit the Time tracking only roles. Instead, delete them, then add them again with the correct role.
  3. Select the account management settings you want to manage.
  4. Select Save.

 

It's important to note that only users with the right permissions can manage user profiles in QuickBooks Online. Here's the complete information on how to add and manage users in QuickBooks Online for your company.
