Just wondering how I can upload staff documents to WorkZone, i.e. contracts, policies and procedures manuals, etc?

I understand however with the WorkZone app it is primarily for employee's as access through to the app is through invitation via the payroll system managed by the employer or administrators. That being said there is still options available for you through KeyPay to upload documents to each of your employee's profiles, please see the steps below to action this:

 

  1. When signed in to the file go to your Employee tab 
  2. Select a employee's name which will pull up their Employee Details. 
  3. On the left-hand side under the header Employee Management you will see the option of Documents. From there you can see in the top-right the option to upload documents where you can select the option to make it Visible to employee.

 

This way, when the employee's sign into the WorkZone app and follow the instructions they will be able to view the documents you upload. Doing this will provide you the 'back-end' access you require to provide these uploads to your employees.

 

Let me know if that helps,

Hi brittany-bertsch, 

 

Yes there is an ability to add in business related documents into WorkZone. I encourage you to click here to get a video run down on how you go about managing documents with WorkZone for employees. Alternatively as well you can click here for an article guide as well. 

 

Thanks,

Hi Steven

 

Thanks, but I am not an employee I am the business owner so this information doesnt help me. I can find endless information online as to how EMPLOYEES can access documents within WorkZone, but nothing related to how EMPLOYERS can upload this information. There isn't even any information on how employers create a WorkZone account / access the area where to upload documents. Everything only ever talks about Employees (as you have).

 

Can you please help with something realised to how EMPLOYERS  access WorkZone (i.e. in the 'back end') and upload documents to each of their employees profiles?

 

Thanks

Uploading a document in this tab is not working for me. It shows the document loading but there is no way to save it. Can anyone advise?

Hi BlkFlgFan, 

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

So that we can better support team, do you mind clarifying where you are trying to upload document, and what format and size of the document you are trying to upload, please?

Hi, I am also experiencing the same problem. 

 

I had minimise the document to pdf to 148 kb but it shows the doc is uploading but it can't be saved. I did it before with a document (pdf and more than 148kb) and that was uploaded and saved. 

 

Looking forward to hearing from you.

 

Thank you .

Hi SeedDC,

 

The file upload size limit is up to 10MB when uploading employee documents in QuickBooks Online Payroll. If your file is larger than the limit, you'll have to reformat or break down your file before uploading.

 

As for situation, you'll have to re-save the file and make sure that the file name has no spaces and special characters on it.

 

Furthermore, we'd recommend using an incognito window or private browser or a different supported browser too to isolate the situation. The incognito window does not save your browsing history and cache making a good place to check your web data issues.

 

Here's how:

 

Google Chrome: press Ctrl + Shift + N

Mozilla Firefox: press Ctrl + Shift + P

Safari: press Command + Shift + N

 

Then, log in to your QuickBooks account and attempt to upload the employee document once ore. If it went through fine, you may want to clear your browser's cache.

 

Let me know how it went! You can drop a comment below and I'll be sure to get back to you.

All is good for now and thank you so much for the response. Appreciate you for it.
