Using QB Payroll for Contractors

c1vb · ‎December 27, 2023

I am setting up Quickbooks Time and QBO Payroll, but our company only has contractors, we don't have any W-2 employees. I was hoping that I'd be able to use the Payroll Item Mapping Tool to set different pay rates by customer, but it appears that I can't do that and have them apply to contractors? Does anyone know if there is a workaround to allow for different pay rates for contractors based on customer or project, and how to set those up to import to QBO payroll so they are paid correctly?

Hi C1vb,

Welcome to the Community. Let me clarify things about integrating QuickBooks Time and QuickBooks Online.

You can only map payroll items to employees, customers, service items, and classes in QuickBooks Time. The option to map payroll items with vendors or 1099 contractors is unavailable. You'll need to enter the pay rates manually in QBO.

Additionally, we've compiled some tips and guides you can use when setting up QuickBooks Time with your QuickBooks Online Payroll. I've attached the link you can visit for guidance: Set up QuickBooks Time in QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Online Payroll.

Let us know if you still have more questions about the integration or sharing of data by leaving a reply. We'll be sure to help. Take care, and have a great rest of the day.
