Good afternoon, rkgargcpa@gmail.

 

Thanks for reaching out to us here. I'd be happy to provide some information regarding WCB.

 

QuickBooks Online provides the options to set up/modify WCB rates. Once you assign a rate to an employee, that rate cannot be deleted. However, you can set the rate to 0 by following the steps below:

 

  1. Select "Settings" , then "Payroll Settings".
  2. Select "Workers' compensation", then "Edit" next to the rate you want to edit.
  3. Change the percentage Rate, Effective date or Rate description as needed. If you need a new description select Add a new rate description and enter it. Select "Save".

Here is a guide for reference. 

 

If you've run payroll using the paper cheque method and you'd like to remove WCB, you can simply delete the pay cheque and re run payroll once you've changed the rate. 

 

If you've processed payroll using Direct deposit and you'd like to remove WCB from a pay run that you've already processed, You'll need to reach out to the Support team outside of the Community so they can work in the back-end and remove it for you. You can reach them by following one of these methods:

 

Schedule a Callback or start a Chat: select (?)Help in the upper right > type and enter "Contact support" into the QB Assistant > click Contact Us > explain your situation > then hit Let's Talk > choose Get a callback or Start a Chat.
