How do I generate paystubs for my contractors?

And once again, some non sensical "tweak" to the online platform in the customer/invoicing section that has me using additional key strokes, but yet we can't have paystubs for Direct Deposit contractors. I know, first world problems, but can we get some features that are requested instead of meaningless tweaks to the user interface?

Yes, there is a recent enhancement in QBO's invoice, dwoolsey.

 

You can switch back to the previous design and share your feedback and insights on why you prefer the old layout. Here's how:

 

  1. From the new Invoice window, click the Old layout option.
  2. Tap Switch layout.
  3. You can choose the boxes for the reasons that made you switch layouts.
  4. Or provide additional insights on the field provided under Anything else we should know?

Regarding generating paystubs for Direct Deposit, we encourage you to share them with our developers. We understand that our customers have various feature requests, and while we strive to accommodate them all, it may take some time to implement them based on demand and priority. Rest assured, our dedicated product engineers are constantly working to enhance the features of our product.

 

If you require further assistance with paying your contractors through direct deposit or printing their checks, we recommend referring to the following articles for guidance: 

 

 

To effectively monitor all the payments made to your vendors/contractors within a specific date range, we suggest reading the following resources: Run a report with vendor totals.

 

If you need further assistance with managing your vendors, contractors, or any other tasks, please don't hesitate to let me know. I'll be ready to assist you in this thread promptly.

What is the point of asking customers to send our opinion and/or to send feedback to your development team when they haven't done anything to fix this issue in over 2 years?  How can there not be a way for a contractor to see a paystub? That is a basic feature, like someone said on one of the previous comments, you have it available to employees, how hard could it be to implement for contactor?

Exactly this is insane.  This thread was started over 2 years ago and they still have not added this feature that alot of people.  But quickbooks has no problem charging you more money thats for sure.  Such a joke.

Hi there, @MAK8.

 

Let me help you look for a third app that can integrate into QuickBooks Online (QBO) to generate contractors' paystubs.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. From the left navigation, select Apps.
  2. Pick Find apps.
  3. Type in the keyword name of the app in the search field.
  4. Then, all possible related apps will show.

 

You can also click this link to find one: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/app/apps/home/

 

If one of the contractors you set up is missing, you can read this article to help you look for it: Troubleshoot missing contractors or wrong amounts on 1099s.

 

Feel free to come back here if you have additional questions about managing your contractor's pay stub. I'll be willing to help. Have a good one.

@agustinacuchi I agree. This is insane that Quickbooks has not found a fix for this yet. Would you mind sharing what app you are using to generate pay stubs? One of my contractors is looking to apply for an apartment today and needs this information asap. Thank you so much for your help!

Just one more user who is shocked there is not an option for paystubs for contractors...  Two years later.  add in grumble grumble grumble, anger, anger, anger.  And for good measure - "whats the app you use for a workaround?" although, after reading the whole thread, either no one replied to the multiple requests or, more likely, QB is deleting the responses as they are mentioning outside services.
