Join nowWe have enhanced payroll for a Quickbooks Desktop. I consider myself a non-accounting treasurer with self-taught QB accounting skills. Not understanding how to set the deduction up. Also, what do I need to do after a deduction gets set up to get it into the church's account as a "tithe deposit???." Thank you
Solved! Go to Solution.
Let's work together to set up a tithe deduction in your account, OMPUMC. You're in the right place for an answer.
Hopefully, you're having a wonderful day today. I'm happy to share the detailed steps on how to set up tithe deduction and report it in your account as a deposit.
Let's set up a tithe payroll item account first. Follow the steps below:
After that, you'll need to assign that item to the pastor's profile. Let me show you how.
Once completed, you'll need to create an unscheduled paycheck for that employee to report the amount as a deposit.
Here's how:
I suggest reaching out to an accountant to help you choose the exact account to use and another way to manage it. This way, your reports and filings are accurate.
In addition, see the following articles below on how to edit payroll items and employee information in QBDT:
Drop me a line if you have another question about your church account. I'm happy to help you again. Take care, @OMPUMC.

If I understand this correctly, a process for each payroll deduction will need to be established to create a physical paper check that will be submitted to log the payment (deposit) of the "tithe" to the church (ourselves)?
Hi there, OMPUMC.
Yes, payroll items should be established first, then added to an employee's profile so that their paychecks can be processed and taxed properly.
I'm adding here some resources that you can check out to help you in managing your liabilities in QBDT:
I've also added our page about payroll and workers if you need some help articles for your future tasks.
Let me know if you have additional questions with anything in QuickBooks. I'll be right here to help. Have a good one!
According to IRS Pub 15B, this is not something that can be set up pre-tax. Please make sure you are familiar with the IRS Publications regarding payroll. They are publication 15, 15A, and 15B, as well as 15T for the withholding tables.
These publications are updated every year, so you'll want to download them (FREE) from irs.gov every year.
Just because QB lets you set something up as pre-tax, doesn't mean it's legal to do so.
Thank you. Yes, we did look into this and found you are exactly right. Must be after tax.
