I can help you track your worker's transactions, kbieber.

 

You have the option to choose how you wanted to set up your staff. If you track them as vendors, you can track their payments and report Form 1099. An employee, on the other hand, helps you track payroll taxes. To know how they work in the system, you can click these links: 

 

Once you've select and set up the staff, you can then reimburse employees' mileage and vehicle expenses. Further, you can manually track payroll within the system to keep your book accurate. 

 

Let me know if you have other questions by mentioning me in your reply. I'll be here to help you. Have a great day!
