Hello,
For that past couple of weeks my workers comp. code is not coming up in my preview check area or my employee set up. When I go into Edit preference workers comp. tracking it is turned off? Can someone please help me with this. I have not touch anything in there?
Thank you.
I'll help with your payroll concern, Lowell211.
A different user might have accidentally turned it off. Can you tell us how many users do you have in your company file?
Although, you can open each paycheck that didn't have the workers compensation and manually add the code. Since it's a company contribution, it will not affect the employee's net amount.
If the paychecks are sent to Direct Deposit, you can create an employee liability adjustment to enter the amounts. Direct Deposit paychecks can no longer be changed once they're processed. Follow the steps in this article on how to record an adjustment: Adjust payroll liabilities in QuickBooks Desktop.

Hi,
Their are 4 users but I only do payroll. I can not go into each individual paycheck the code area does not appear. Can you tell me how I can turn it back on?
Thank you,

Thank you for getting back to us here on the Community page, @Lowell211.
How was it so far? The code area is missing when the Workers Comp Preferences is disabled. At this time, we can perform some steps to add back the WC Code column before following the steps suggested by JenoP above. To add the code, enable the option to track workers comp in QuickBooks Desktop.
Once done, modify the employee's paycheck and add the code manually from there.
