Compairing payroll from one month to the next

Hi Liquor1045,

You can run the Payroll Summary report and customize it to show information by month. This report shows the total wages, taxes withheld, deductions from net pay, additions to net pay, company-paid taxes, and contributions for each employee on your payroll. I'll guide you how.

1. Go to Reports and choose Employees & Payroll.
2. Select Payroll Summary.
3. Click on the Customize Report button.
4. Set the date for a specific month.
5. In the Columns section, mark to select the Previous Period checkbox
6. Click on OK.

You'll learn more through this link on how to customize a report in QuickBooks: Customize reports in QuickBooks Desktop.

There are also pre-defined payroll reports you can generate. You can check this article for more information: Payroll and employee reports. This contains steps on how to customize your payroll reports.
