Fringe Benefit

Adding Fringe Benefit to your payroll is my specialty, NicoleHNorris. I'll gladly show you how.

The steps that you've mentioned to record fringe benefit are for the desktop version. Since you're using QuickBooks Online Payroll, I'd suggest following the steps below.

Let's start by enabling the Fringe Benefit inside the employee profile. Here's how:

1. Go to the Payroll menu and then select Employees.
2. Choose the employee's name.
3. On the How much do you pay [employee's name], click the pencil icon.
4. Scroll down to Additional pay types, then select the relevant fringe benefit.
5. Once finished, click on Save, then Done.

After that, we can now enter the value of a fringe benefit on a paycheck. I'll show you how.

1. Be sure the Fringe Benefit pay type has already been applied to the employee.
2. From the left menu, select Workers.
3. Select Run Payroll.
4. Enter the employee's regular pay and the amount in the fringe benefit field you previously added.
5. Preview and Submit the payroll.

For more details about the process, please see this article: Add Fringe Benefits to Pay Checks.

Also, you can browse this article to learn more about the supported pay types and deductions: Taxability Types.

Additionally, I encourage running payroll reports in QuickBooks Online. This helps you view useful information about your business and employees.
