It's nice to hear from you today, motin_1999.
If you're trying to add a client's EIN to your payroll subscription, you can follow the steps below:
- Select Employees, then Payroll, choose to Use My Existing Payroll Service. (If you don't see that option, proceed to The "Use my existing payroll service option is not available."
- Under Identify Subscription, choose Use Subscription Number XXXXXXX [ Payroll Subscription Version ]. (If you don't see your own subscription in the list, select Other: I have an existing subscription and a Zip Code. And enter your information.)
- Select Next.
- When the Add Company Information window opens, select Next to add the company EIN.
- Select Print. Or Return to QuickBooks Desktop. (Note: The Validating Payroll Subscription window opens and the service is added automatically.)
- Verify the Service Key.
- Select Employees, then My Payroll Service, then Manage Service Keys.
- Select View to display the new service key with an Active Status.
You can get more details about this process in this article: Add an EIN to existing Payroll Subscription.
