Join nowIf I understand it correctly from Support the $8.00 processing fee for each employee is not based on submitted individual employees for each month. Instead it is calculated by how many active employees are in your system. e.g. I have aprox 100 employees most are part time or seasonal.
I have added all 100 to my system. But I only have maybe 10 working in off season. If get a busy week and call in say 25 more employees the total number of employees paid for the month would be 25+10 = 35 * 8.00 a processing fee of $280.00 works for me.
But like I said above if I don't have the employees marked in my system with a specific status i will get charged for all 100 employees times 8 = 800.00, I have to constantly be going into each individual employee set up card and deactivating them be before i submit a payroll even if I don't pay them that month.
How can this be true, I imagine many companies are skipping this step and getting charged for every employee setup in the system that is not in a do not pay deactivated status.
Help! am I understanding this wrong???
I'd like you to get the best possible explanation about this fee, neilr3.
Our Payroll Support team will be able to clarify how the employee is calculated. Below are the steps to get in touch with them:

My issue is that my post is the answer I have gotten from QB support, most representatives have been very surprised after getting this info from there next level support they have told me to send in a product change request. The second problem is it is very cumbersome to go thru the steps to change employee status. if we had a drop down in the employee list allowing this step it would be much simpler then drilling into each employee card to temporarily tag the employee status "Do Not Pay".
Does any one know how to submit a product change request?
Thanks
