How do I set up our company for view my paychecks. I have all their emails and normally just email their paystubs.

Hello, @tparker.

 

Welcome to the Community. I'll be happy to explain how your employees can access their paystubs.

 

QuickBooks Payroll is now using a new website called Workforce instead of view my paychecks. The set up is simple and your employees will be able to accomplish this.

 

Please provide this information to your employees before they sign up:

  • Check with your employer to see if QuickBooks Workforce is available for your company.
  • Make sure you have your Social Security number (SSN) handy. And the net amount of your last paycheck issued by the company. The net amount is your take-home pay. We'll need this info to verify who you are. And match you with the correct company and paycheck info.

To sign up:

  1. Go to QuickBooks Workforce.
  2. Select Sign Up.
  3. Sign up for an Intuit account. An Intuit account allows you to access multiple sites and products with one user ID and password.
    You'll be asked to provide an email address, a password, and a security question and answer. In case you need to recover your password.
    (Note: If you already use an Intuit product, such as TurboTax, then you may already have an Intuit account. If you already have one, we'll prompt you to use that account to sign up for QuickBooks Workforce.)
  4. Enter your SSN and the net pay amount from your last paycheck issued by the company.

Once they complete this process they will be able to view their paychecks with ease.

If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to reach out.

We switched from desktop QB to online QB in May of 2017.  Then switched back to desktop QB in January of 2018, due to our database size.

 

As of 3/8/2019, employees were able to view their paychecks online.  I know there was a switch-over to QB Workforce, however my employees cannot access their recent pay because we are no longer using QB online. (I have tried entering the social security # and most recent net pay; it takes the employee to the same page, which shows the latest paycheck from Feb 2018.)  Is there another site for desktop users to utilize?  Any suggestions/help is much appreciated.

 

Thank you,

So maybe I'm missing something but there is no sign "up" for me literally anywhere on the screen, only sign "IN". I've tried making an Intuit account through other means but when I try to load up viewmypaycheck it just tells it can't load my information. I have not been able to find any sort of prompt to set up an account and I've followed like 5 different links that have lead to the same login site and I'm actually beginning to get really frustrated with this whole situation. PLEASE HELP

I got you here, Mrhanek, and I will give you the details you need from start to finish.

 

Your employer will need to send you an email invitation about viewing your paystubs online. The email contains a link (Get access for paychecks) that will let you sign up an Intuit account.

 

If your employer hasn't invited you yet, you can tell them to do so. This article can guide them: Give employees online access to paychecks and W-2's.

 

I also have another article that will guide you from signing up an account to viewing your paystubs and W2s. Please check this out: QuickBooks Workforce: Access your paychecks and W-2’s online.

 

Please don't work too much on finding the information you need by yourself. We're here to help you with that.

My employer says they setup the view my paycheck information but the only email I received did not give any links to click. I set up my own intuit account but it never asked me for a Social security number or last pay amount.  And when I log in I get an error message.  Help please!

Hi there, Jonandshelli4ever.

 

Were you able to successfully log in, but encountered an error when viewing the paycheck information? If so, you can contact our Customer Care Team to grant you the paychecks access.

 

You can reach out to us via chat support here: Need help with QuickBooks Workforce?.

 

I'm also adding this article for reference: QuickBooks Workforce: Access your paychecks and W-2’s online.

 

If you're getting the same result, please reach out to your employer, so they can resend the invitation. 

 

I'd appreciate any additional questions you have. Thanks.

Hello there, @RajN

 

Viewing your paychecks helps you track your payroll data, employee info, and taxes so you'll be ready when you file W-2 forms at year-end. Rest assured I'm here to share with you the possible reasons and solutions so you can see your 2019 payroll data on the Workforce website.

  • If you're the employer, you haven't created paychecks for yourself in 2019. Just ran payroll in the program depending on the QuickBooks version you're using: QuickBooks Desktop Payroll and QuickBooks Online Payroll
  • If you're the employee, your employer haven't run payroll for you in 2019. I'd suggest contacting your employer to verify if they created paychecks for you. 
  • Your employer might be using other payroll provider after December 2018 if you're the employee. Contact your employer for this so you can view your paychecks using their payroll software. 

 

However, if none of the solutions work, I'd suggest getting in touch with our Customer Care Team. They are available from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM PT (Monday to Friday). They can double-check your account and help fix your Workforce concerns. 

 

Once fixed, you can download and print your paychecks and W-2's. You can also update your email address or password for your account. To learn more about this process, visit this article: Access Your Paychecks and W-2's Online.

 

Keep me posted if you have other concerns. I'll be right here to help, @RajN
