I have employees that work in multiple tax jurisdictions through out the pay period. How can I properly deduct taxes for hours worked at each jobsite via quickbooks payroll? If I add it as a deduction, it subtracts the determined % post-tax, which defeats the purpose. In this state, we're required to deduct taxes for employees who earn wages depending on the town they work in. In my business, the towns/jurisdictions can change weekly or daily. I'm not finding a way to properly deduct taxes from an employee in payroll. I'm only able to edit the employees primary work location to change the taxes.

I'm here to help you with calculating taxes for your employees' hours worked at different job locations, Coryl.

 

To achieve this, you can set up and manage work locations in QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll. By specifying the work locations of your employees, we can determine which state and local taxes you need to pay. I can guide you through the process.

 

  1. Find out which state taxes apply and gather the info. 
  2. To make changes to your employee's work location, go to the Payroll menu, then choose Employees.
  3. Select your employee.
  4. Under Employment details, click Start or Edit.
  5. From the Work location dropdown, choose an existing address or +Add work location.
  6. If you choose to add a work location, input the physical address where your employee works. Then, select the correct address from the list.
  7. Once you're done, click Save.
  8. If applicable, you can also set up your new taxes. You're required to complete the new state or local tax setup if your employee works in another state or local tax jurisdiction.

 

For more detailed information, you can visit this article: Set up and manage work locations in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

 

In case you want to make, manage, assign, or edit pay schedules, you can check out this article for more guidance: Set up and manage payroll schedules.

 

I'm still all ears if you have any other payroll-related concerns. Just leave a reply and I'll be there to help. Stay safe!

Hi Coryl, 

 

Hope you’re doing great. I wanted to see how everything is going about the calculation of taxes for your employees you had earlier. Was it resolved? Do you need any additional help or clarification? If you do, just let me know. I’d be happy to help you at anytime.

 

Looking forward to your reply. Have a pleasant day ahead!
