Is there a way to add the Workers comp rates in QBO? We have our own policy outside of QBO.

Hello there,

 

From how it is important to you and your business, currently, to put rate for each employee is unavailable in QuickBooks Online. As QuickBooks Online offers Worker's Compensation for work-related injuries, covering medical expenses, lost wages, and death benefits. It also provides liability insurance for the company and up to two-thirds of an employee's salary for lost wages. 

 

In all other states, except those in Texas, you can get workers’ comp through the state or a private insurance provider—Intuit partners with insurance broker Next. Learn about workers’ comp laws in your state. There, you can also learn about the rates. For more details, refer to this link: Workers Compensation Software.

 

I will also leave these articles for future purposes:

I understand what workers comp is. My question is, we do project tracking and was wondering if there was a way to track workers comp inside of QBO every time payroll is processed without going through NEXT. We have our own work comp policy outside of NEXT. I do have work comp codes set up for each employee already but there is not a place to put the rate for each employee. I am tracking the work comp outside of QBO in a spreadsheet. When we had QB desktop we could track it in there. Now we use QBO for payroll and what I have found so far, unless you use NEXT there is not a way to track it by project through payroll. Is that correct??

    I understand how important adding workers' compensation rates is for your business and project tracking, @Kbents. 

     

    However, the option to do so in QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll is unavailable. It would be most beneficial to directly convey your feedback to our Product Developers. To address this concern and request the addition of this feature in future product updates, I recommend conveying your feedback directly to our Product Developers. They would be the best resource to provide information on whether this feature is planned for implementation in the future.

     

    To send your input, here's how:
     

    1. Open your QBO account.
    2. Go to the Gear icon and select Feedback.
    3. Type in your suggestions and then click on Next.
