How to update Dental Code in batch

Hi,

 

I understand dental code is now a requirement for 2023 T4s slip. Is there anyway to update Dental Code in batch for multiple employees all at once, instead of going in each and individual employee file and update the field one by one?

I have tried to export the Employee List to IIF file to work on the database. But there isn't Dental Code field on the exported IIF file. Also there is no Dental Code field when I view Employee list by go to Report tab -> List -> Employee Contact List -> Customize Report. There are all other fields such as Name, Address, SIN, tax, TD1, VAC, SICK, etc. but no DENTAL CODE.

Is this something that QB can improve and update the program to include Dental Code field to the exporting IIF field so that users can update dental code in batch please?

Hey there, 560105.

 

Thanks for reaching out to us here. I'd be happy to provide some information.

 

At this time, QuickBooks Online doesn't have the option to update the employees dental code in batch. I can see how being able to do this would be beneficial for you, I recommend leaving feedback for our developers by heading to the "Gear" icon and clicking on the "Feedback" option. This feedback is considered and taken into account when creating new features and updates for QuickBooks.


Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions.

Hi,

Sorry. I might have chosen the wrong option for the QB version we used. We used QB desktop Enterprise. Please advise!

Welcome back, 560105. 

 

My mistake. However, at this time, this still isn't an option that is available in QuickBooks Desktop. Here is how you can submit feedback for QuickBooks Desktop:

 

  1. Select the "Help" option.
  2. Click "Send Feedback Online" 
  3. Chose the "Product Suggestion" option. A pop-up window displays.
  4. Enter your feedback suggestion.
  5. Click the "Send Feedback" button.

Im here if you have any other questions.

Sorry doens't answer your question but hoping to ask a different one as i posted a question and i  didn't have any responses. My place of employment offers benefits to spouse and children which is option 3, but my question is do i put that across the board even if the employee is single ?

Hi Jsos,

 

The Dental Benefit has specific codes that would be applied to each employee.  However, to learn more about the codes and how they should be determined, I suggest referring to the CRA website, for detailed information and guidelines.

 

Should you have any other questions, be sure to reach out.  We are always happy to assist!
