Question

Today I saw a webinar about automatic Tax Codes in Payroll. It said Advanced Payroll already had that function, I use advanced payroll, it isn't working, any ideas why?

I use the RTI function so my government gateway credentials are fine, but I have to log into my HMRC portal manually and update changes in tax codes manually so automatic updates would be really useful.

Hi @bob104,

 

I'm here to take care of this query about automatic tax codes. 

 

If you're referring to employee tax codes, these are entered by hand. The reason for this is it's the HMRC who can provide the correct tax code to use for each employee you have. 

 

To get the latest news of the updates released for QBO each month, take a look at this page: The QuickBooks Blog. 

 

Feel free to leave a comment below if you have other questions. I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Hi @bob104 , just to let you know, we now offer Automated Tax Codes on both of our Payroll offerings (Standard & Advanced).

Hi Jack

 

Yes that's been working for a while now, the issue I now have is that QuickBooks doesn't tell me when it updates it, I have to rely on either noticing it or a P6 notification from HMRC, is there a setting within QuickBooks Advanced Payroll that would notify me when a code is changed?

 

Thanks

Hello bob104, you don't see any updates on the main payroll dashboard at all when a code has changed?
