Payroll

[Stephanierice]

where on the app do I calculate payroll and taxes?

Your version of QuickBooks, QBSE has zero capability to manage payroll. There is no payroll product that will integrate and you cannot modify the chart of accounts to compensate.  Even though a standard Schedule C form would include a single line for wages paid what comes with QBSE does not allow for it - it is assumed by Intuit that only really small or part-time entities will use the stripped down single entry system and thus it has no capability even to handle a second vehicle let alone payroll. To mange payroll you can use one of the Intuit products or a product from another supplier but you cannot integrate the results into your current QuickBooks product

 Hello Stephanierice,  

Welcome to the Community.  

John-pero is correct. Tracking payroll is an add-on service available only in QuickBooks Online. In QuickBooks Self-Employed, it doesn't support this feature. 

You might consider converting to QBO. However, there's no option to carry over the data recorded in your QSE account. You'll need to sign up for a new account, import the lists, and start fresh. Also, this version will help you prepare the payroll tax forms you need. I've go you an article to get started with payroll: Setting Up Payroll for the First Time.
