Year end: Make sure all employee paychecks are recorded

Make sure that you've recorded all payments you made to active, inactive, and terminated employees during 2016, including handwritten and termination paychecks.

Handwritten and termination checks

If you created a handwritten or termination check for an employee outside the payroll service, make sure that it's been recorded in QuickBooks Online Payroll so the wages are accurately reported on the employee's W-2.

Be careful when recording paychecks that were created outside QuickBooks Online Payroll. Paychecks have associated tax and other liability calculations and payments that need to be considered.

ClosedWhat about checksissued in a prior quarter?

If you record a paycheck that was issued in a prior quarter, you'll probably need to recalculate payroll taxes and re-file forms. If you need help recording paychecks, contact us.
