It’s nice to see you in the Community, erinMo.

I recognize the importance of being able to see the history of an employee’s pay rate. This allows you to see the changes made to their wages.

The report you need is currently available in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll (Employee Pay Adjustments History). We’re continuously working to enhance the product’s features to ensure our customers have the best online experience. I suggest sending feedback about this feature directly to our product engineers. This way, they’ll know that adding the Employee Pay Adjustments History report to the online version is beneficial for your business.

Thank you, I have submitted the feedback form online as well. I've done this several times in the past though and have never heard back about any feedback so I was hopeful posting here may put it front of some other QB support eyes. 

If we subscribe to the QB Payroll Online version, do we have access to the Desktop version for download?

Thanks for joining the discussion, @erimMo.

I can share some insights about our QuickBooks subscriptions and their differences.

Our our online and desktop versions of QuickBooks uses different database, and are completely separate platforms. If you but the online payroll subscription, it will not include desktop licenses for download.

Desktop versions of QuickBooks for Windows, works with the Desktop payroll plan. To review the difference of our services, see the following links below:

• QuickBooks Online Payroll Plans and Pricing
• QuickBooks Payroll Services and Features for QuickBooks Desktop

If you have further questions about our products, visit us again anytime. I'll be right here to discuss some insights with you. Have a nice day!

We would also love to see QB Online Payroll provide us with a report showing a history of our employee's rate of pay. It's crazy to pay this amount of $$ each month for the Online version and this report only be available to QB Desktop users.  Come on, Quickbooks.  Helps us out sooner than later. And yes, I've provided feedback already asking for the Employee Pay Adjustments History 

This report is absolutely important and it makes no sense at all to consider it important enough to put in ONE platform of QB but not another.  As more and more switch to the Online version, this matters.

Why is there no report in quickbooks that lets you run a report to show the hourly rate on their paystubs for the pay period. This is required for workers comp issues and we do not have a report for Quickbooks Online to generate it. 

Hello there, 

We recognize that each company has unique needs. And I know how important and more convenient for you and your business to run a report that shows the hourly rate of the employee's paystubs for a specific pay period.

While the feature isn't available, I suggest submitting feedback within the QBO account. This way, it goes to our product developers to help improve your experience while utilizing the program.

To send feedback, follow the below steps:

1. Go to the Gear icon at the top.
2. Select Feedback.
3. Enter your comments or product suggestions. 
4. Then select Next to submit feedback.

If you have other concerns and questions about managing your QBO account, I'm always around to help. Take care, and I wish you continued success.

I'm joining in this conversation in hopes that someone from Intuit sees this and actually does something about it.  It's absurd that I can't run a simple report showing an employees name and rate of pay. Simple. Easy Peasy. Right? Not! And it should be!! 

Add Rate of Pay to some report somewhere!!

Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to see what user made the change

Thanks for chiming in this thread, @INR3. I'm here to share some information about this matter.

In QuickBooks Desktop, you can check the changes or adjustments made in your employee's hourly pay rates by accessing the Employee Pay Adjustments History report. However, if you want to identify the user responsible for the modifications, there are no available options for that.

4. Select the transaction that you want to view ( please be reminded that you'll need to open those transactions individually).

thank you saved me so  much time 

This is so helpful, but how can I export or print the report?

I'm pleased that the report recommended above aligns with your objectives, @Sibyl. I can help you get a copy of it. 

While the option to export and print the Payroll Item List report is unavailable, there's a workaround you can use. By utilizing the keyboard shortcut CTRL+P, you can get a copy of the report. However, this will only print the content on the page. Feel free to move to each column and print them individually.

See the attached screenshot for visual reference.
 

Our team is constantly improving our product for a better user experience. I can see how important the functionality to export and print the Payroll Item List report is for your business needs, so I recommend sending a feature request to our product engineers.
