Have a small payroll 3 employees, no online payroll, manual payroll enter data quickbooks use data for correct tax deductions, and fill in quarterly 941. Nothing fancy?

Yes, QuickBooks does have an option for managing payroll without being online, @jjac11433. However,  QuickBooks Online Payroll Core is the simplest option we can offer, providing basic payroll, tax calculations, and direct deposit for small businesses.

Since you're focusing on the simplicity, self-sufficiency, and efficiency of a product, I suggest looking for a third-party application that you could sync with QuickBooks Online through the Apps menu.
 

Here's how:
 

1. Navigate the Apps menu and then select Find Apps.
2. Enter 'payroll' in the Search field.
3. Select the application that you want to check.
4. Review the Overview, Pricing, and Reviews.
5. Click Learn more.

You can also reach out to our Sales Team for recommendations on alternative payroll products that better suit your needs.
