can I import employee list using a csv file

Hello there, Yuen. I'll share insights about importing employee lists in QuickBooks Online.

 

Employee information cannot be imported directly from other applications into QuickBooks Online. Nonetheless, when transitioning a company file from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online, you can transfer employee contact details, although payroll data is not included in the conversion.

 

As a workaround, manually add employees in QuickBooks Online. Follow the steps below.

 

  1. From the left menu, hover your mouse to Payroll and choose Employees.
  2. Click Add an employee.
  3. Enter the necessary details, then hit Add employee.

 

If you need professional guidance in managing employees, explore QuickBooks Payroll. They can assist you in adding employees' information.

 

For future reference, here is an article you can refer to when running a paycheck: Create and run your payroll.

 

Comment below if you need further assistance managing employees in QuickBooks Online.
