Workers Compensation Stopped Tracking

I have QB Desktop Pro 2020. Workers compensation has been set up as manually tracking for the past 2 years. Last pay period I adjusted the workers compensation liability and now QB is not tracking workers compensation through employee paychecks. It does not show up in the pay liabilities tab and it doesn't calculate WC in each employee pay check. Tracking WC is marked in Preferences, any idea how to fix this?

I’m here to help you so your Workers' Compensation Tracking feature will be back in working order, @TGC208.


Since the Track Workers Comp option is already marked in the Preferences, you can update your payroll tax table to stay compliant with paycheck calculations.


Here’s how:

 

  1. Go to the Employees menu, then select Get Payroll Updates.
  2. Mark the Download Entire Update checkbox.
  3. Select Download Latest Update. An informational window appears when the download is complete.

You can also update your QuickBooks Desktop account to the latest release. This way, you can get the full functionality of payroll updates.


If the same things happen, you can use the Verify and Rebuild Data tool. It resolves data issues on your QuickBooks company file quickly.


Here’s an article that tackles Workers' Compensation and its reports in QuickBooks Desktop. It contains complete instructions to generate information, including assigning codes, adding an experience modification factor, and paying the premiums.


Should you have other questions about Workers Compensation in QuickBooks, please let me know. I’ll be happy to assist you further.
