Can you change the way QB calculates Workers Comp from hours to calculating it on wages earned?

Glad you made it here, cfasy8591.

 

In QuickBooks Online, you can assign worker's compensation classes to your employees. Let's ensure to turn the class tracking feature in QBO. I'll walk you through the process.

 

To turn on class tracking:

 

  1. Go to Settings ⚙ and select Account and Settings.
  2. Select Advanced, then select the Categories section to edit.
  3. Check Track classes.
  4. Check Warn me when a transaction isn’t assigned a class
  5. Under Assign classes select One to entire transaction or One to each row in transaction.
  6. Select Save, then Done.

Then, assign them to your employees.

  1. Click Payroll in the left pane.
  2. Select Employees.
  3. Select the employee's name, and then select Edit employee.
  4. Select Employment at the top of the page, and then enter the name of the worker's comp class.
  5. Click Done.

You can learn more details about turning on class tracking in this article.
