Can an employee have more than two garnishments withheld?

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can only add two garnishments under the employee details, @atlanticcoastland1. However, you can set up the additional garnishment as Other deduction.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll menu, then Employees.
  2. Select the employee.
  3. From the Deductions & contributions section, click Edit.
  4. Select + Add deduction/contribution from the Deduction/contribution dropdown.
  5. From the Deduction/contribution type, select Other Deduction.
  6. From Type, select Other after tax deductions.
  7. Enter other needed details.
  8. Click Save and Done.

Also, you can run the Payroll Deductions/Contributions report if you need to keep track of your total employee deductions and company contributions in QBO. Here's an article for further guidance: Run payroll reports. It includes several payroll reports you can use to view details about your business and employees.
