Hi Hanna,
Let's create a dummy paycheck with a net amount of $1.00 amount. Then, let your employee setup their QuickBook Workforce account. The reason for this is because the system won't sent a paycheck for Direct Deposit check. We'll need to manually connect set this up for your employees. I'm here to get this worked.
To create a dummy unscheduled paycheck, here's how:
- Select the Employees menu.
- Select Pay Employees.
- From the Enter Payroll Information window, enter the net pay as 1.00.
- Click on Create Paychecks.
Let's send the pay stub online. Here's how:
- From the QuickBooks Desktop menus at the top, select Employees.
- Select Send Payroll Data.
-
In the Send/Receive Payroll Data window, review the following information in the Items to Send area.
-
Select Send All.
-
Enter your Payroll Service PIN then select OK.
Invite employees to access their pay stubs online:
- From the Employees menu, select Manage Payroll Cloud Services.
- Note: If you don’t see Manage Payroll Cloud Services, you need to update QuickBooks.
