Form OQ 2023

Hi,

Quickbooks is not generating Form OQ 2023 (Oregon Quarterly Tax Report) correctly. I have one employee showed in report twice, and one other employee was missing. Is this a technical problem?

Form OQ 2023

Good day, @ericaroberts.

 

How QuickBooks generates a State Quarterly Tax report depends on the data you've entered into the program. 

 

Let's verify first if you have an almost similar employee profile in the Employee Center. This can be the reason why it's showing the same employee on the report twice. 

 

Simply go to the Employees menu, then select Employee Center. After that, review the Employees tab and check if you have an employee with almost the same name.

 

Let's also make sure that the missing employee was part of your paychecks in the first quarter. This can be the reason why it's not showing on the report. To verify, we can run the Payroll Summary report and filter its date to the first quarter. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Reports and select Employees & Payroll.
  2. Click Payroll Summary.
  3. Filter the Dates.

 

I'd also recommend running a payroll update every time you do payroll for your employees to ensure that your tax table is updated to the latest release.

Form OQ 2023

I understand Quickbooks generates reports based on the data I enter. I've never had problems before until this year when they changed the format of Form OQ and Form 132 due to Paid Leave Oregon. The OQ - Quarterly Tax Report I created through file forms did not generate correctly (and multiple attempts were made with the same results). However, the "Tax Form Worksheets" I exported to Excel looks good, with no known errors. The fact that the reports are different implies that this is not a data entry problem, but a software malfunction.

 

There are a least a few bugs in my OQ - Quarterly Tax Report:

-The employee who should be listed in line 7 is missing.

-The employees are correctly listed on lines 1-14, i.e. pages 1 and 2, but after page 2, the employee numbers begin to repeat, and pages 3-9 all incorrectly number employees on lines 7-14 (as well as associated boxes a-h).

-The employee who is listed in line 14, is repeated on page 3 as the second line 7.

-The page number for page 1 is shown at the bottom right as Page 1 of 2 (this should read Page 1 of 9), and the page number for page 2 is shown as Page 2 of 2. Pages 3-9 are all numbered as Page 2 of 2.

 

There may be other problems that I have not noticed, but as it is, this report is unusable for correct record keeping for my company. I want QB software engineers/developers to be made aware of these issues so that the entire community can benefit from the correction.

I had the exact same issue with 1Q23 Form 132 on the OQ yesterday. One employee was showing up twice and another was missing. I'm filing these online in Frances and not through QB Desktop, so I can manually enter in the correct data, but I do agree that the engineers need to be aware and fix the bugs.

 

Thank you creating this discussion. This is the fist time I've seen this error too.

We are having the same exact issue in Quickbooks Enterprise with the Oregon OQ report for this first quarter.  I do not see a solution...except to call in for help. Is that the solution the community has used for this? I have two employees on there twice and two employees who are not on the report at all...out of 68.

Same issue here. Doubled up employees and missing employees. Thank you for this post. I am going to enter the request to technical services as well.

Mine is having issues too! Our owner is showing up on the form and shouldn't be, I'm unable to remove him even with override. It also has the wrong tax rate for UI tax and PFMLI so those calculations are coming out wrong.

Thank you for joining us here in the Community, @Katie95. I appreciate you for posting in the forum.

 

I'll share information that could help you correct the incorrect tax rate for UI and PML. 

 

First, you'll want to update your payroll tax table to ensure you have the latest rates and calculations. Or follow these steps:

 

Check or download the latest tax table:

 

  1. Go to Employees, then choose Get Payroll Updates.
  • To know your tax table version:
  1. Check the number next to You are using the tax table version:
  2. To identify if it’s the correct version, see the latest payroll news and updates.
  3. To find more details on your tax table version, select Payroll Update Info.
  • To get the latest tax table:
  1. Click Download Entire Update.
  2. Select Update. An informational window appears when the download is complete.

 

Then, you may want to follow some general troubleshooting steps to help you determine the source of payroll tax calculation errors and also the steps on how to fix them in this article: QuickBooks Desktop calculates wages and/or payroll taxes incorrectly.

 

I'll include this article if you need a guide in filing your forms: E-file and e-pay federal forms and taxes in QuickBooks Desktop Payroll Enhanced.

 

For additional QuickBooks-related concerns, don't hesitate to post them here in the Community. We're always available and willing to lend a hand to your queries. Have a great day ahead.

Thank you for responding to our issue, James. Yet I'm unsure if you read what we are actually saying is wrong. This error has nothing to do with our UI or PML rates being incorrect, this is a system/form error of leaving employees off the for 132 and doubling up on reporting others.

After sitting with QB customer service for an hour, going through their steps, rebuilding my data, and then being assured an update was coming Friday (last week) that would fix this...I have updated payroll each day since. Thursday, Friday, and now today. No fix has come through.


Yes I can hand enter. I have 88 employees. The data Quickbooks is providing is incorrect as it is still doubling employees at the end of one page and the beginning of another. To sort this is taking many hours of staff time.

 

Is there an update coming as I was told? Reba

I just spent about 12 hours (over the course of 2 days) on the phone with QB support because I'm having the same exact issue.  Exact issue.  QB told me, however, that there were no other known issues.  After 12 hours of trying to resolve, we did not get the problem fixed and I find this feed that contradicts everything that 3 different people at QB told me.  Very frustrating, to say the least.

Today is 04/24/23. Friday, 04/21/23 I was on the phone for 3 hours with QuickBooks support in regards to the Oregon OQ / 132 not pulling the data correctly from our Payroll Summary information. He was having me override some of the fields but where it mattered to add the totals correctly the over ride feature was greyed out.

QUICKBOOKS, PLEASE GET THIS SORTED OUT SO WE CAN MOVE ON. This is SO frustrating. I have multiple clients to run quarterly reports for and time is running out! I again did a complete update, payroll update, restart, and nothing new is coming in. This is the second blunder this year. The first in Janaury 2023 for the new Oregon Paid Leave update in January was not right. I was suppose to receive a call back at 11:00 AM this morning and no one called. We all would appreciate the Payroll Update coming through tomorrow!

I did call back yesterday and spent an additional 2.5 hours on the phone with another tech, who was then communicating with her tech people and had me do several items such as repair my data. Reinstall the updates, re download, and on and on and on....this tech thought maybe it was that Oregon hadn't properly completed the form before they sent it to QuickBooks. I'm not sure who needs to fix this...but could someone please take the initiative to fix this glitch. It's embarrassing to explain to my clients that their reports might be late. This is a serious issue across multiple versions of QuickBooks Desktop and Enterprise. Could someone please get us a new Payroll Update ASAP! My Accountant Edition renewal and Enhanced Payroll renewal is going to hit my credit card next week for $1000 + dollars. We are paying for this, please fix it.

As of @2:45pm PST 4/27 there is no fix. I noticed that the subtotals for each page of the report are incorrect also. There is an investigation into which all our case numbers are being lumped. It is obviously a mistake on their end. The customer service tech had me repair Quickbooks, use the repair tool on the print and pdf function, update everything possible etc. The report was identical after some minor updates were made.  I was assured that the engineers are working on this.

I am have the EXACT SAME ISSUE with Form 132!!  Duplicated an employee, omitted an employee, totals do not match Form OQ.  If those reports are generated form our data, how are the totals different?  How is an employee listed twice with the exact same amounts and one is not listed? Why does the OQ totals match my report but the 132 list and totals not match the exact same report?  Why are so many people reporting the exact same problem, one I would guess you haven't heard before?  I have used QB Enterprise for 19 years, I know how to run tax forms!  When the issue was discovered, and prior to turning to the internet to look for similar problems, I ran both payroll and program updates multiple times two days in a row.  I verified my data integrity.  I backed up.  I rebuilt my data.  And finally out of desperation with only one day left to file, I turned to a search engine and found, word for word, the same problem. It is obvious that the users who have left comments are experienced and know what they are talking about!  Please listen and quickly fix this issue!

  2. Select QuickBooks Desktop Help/Contact Us.
  3. Click Contact Us.
  4. Give a brief description of your issue, then tick Continue.
  5. Sign in to your Intuit account.

I screen shared with a tech today for 4 hours. There is definitely a glitch with the Oregon OQ/ 132. Problem remains unsolved. One employee is missing from tax form, but does show in Quickbook’s Payroll Summary. The OQ & 132 totals do not match. We pay for the reports and need them to be correct. It is a not acceptable to make QB customers hand enter all the information into Oregon Frances manually. I hand to hand enter year report in 2022.  This is the second glitch. I did receive an apology letter in the mail, but no refund for doing the accounting myself. If you are going to keep raising the rates. Then make sure your program works….

Won't even try to get a hold of help from Intuit customer service because they chew through precious time. Will proceed with manual entries. I'm working on OQ 2023 for II Quarter and the Forms module doesn't map the employee's hours, therefore the entire report data are inaccurate. All separate payroll reports (summaries) work and present data correctly. All payroll updates are downloaded and installed. The Oregon Quarterly Form continues to be a problem. The issue appears to be with mapping corresponding data to the form's lines. It was never perfect in the past, but it was possible to override the errors. This time it's impossible to override because the feature doesn't work, it either greyed-out or inactive. Recently, we entered the subscription category with Premier Pro Edition and the bugs increased making the reporting through QB unreliable. There's nothing QB does that Excel doesn't. Question is why businesses pay so much for subscription, which is south of expected, and exposing themselves to possible penalties for Intuit's failure? And long hours wasted to no avail.

I have had the same issue with a duplicate employee and the whole worked hours not matching on half of my employee's QB reports. After two days on the phone with support, I finally got someone to look at our company file to see what was happening. They opened an investigation into this issue. INV-90255 is the investigation number that might help you when calling in. My problem is still not fixed but tier 3 support will be working with the product developers to hopefully have this resolved by Q3.

I was happy to see your comment as I am having the same issue. An employee is missing from the OQ report and the hours worked are not correct on the OQ report even though they are correct on the payroll summary. I am pulling my hair out.  Did you ever find a  resolution for this?

  2. Click the QuickBooks Desktop Help menu and select Contact Us.
  3. Provide some information about this concern in the search box, then select Continue.
  4. Sign in to your Intuit account and tap Continue. Afterward, select Continue with my account.
  5. Please enter the code that will be sent to your via email and select Continue.
  6. From there, select how you want to connect with us. It’s either to chat with us or Have us call you.
