Hi there,

 

It's important that your employees get paid the right amount of money every pay period. QuickBooks Online Payroll allows you to add custom deductions to an employee so that you can reduce their pay for many different reasons. I can show you how to add a deduction to an employee.

 

In order to add a deduction to an employee, you can navigate to the Payroll tab, then the Employees section. Click on the name of an employee to open their profile, then select Edit employee. In the Pay column, locate the Does Employee have any deductions or contributions? section, then click on the Add deduction button. The Child care expenses deduction is a subtype of the Taxable benefits deduction type. You can add an amount deducted per paycheque as well as a company contribution if you'd like.
