TERI is also an Idiot

has anyone been able to bypass the message?

Hi there, radrad.

Override tax penalties may apply when your screen and submit payroll, and you may need to perform a backdated check, which will be reflected on the payroll form. This must be accomplished by contacting our payroll specialist. They are the ones who can help you avoid tax penalties. Here's how to get in touch with them:

1. Go to Help in the upper-right corner.
2. Enter a short description of your concern.
3. Click Talk to a human. Then, I still need a human.
4. You can then get a callback or send a message to start a conversation with our specialist.

Please get back if you have other QuickBooks record-keeping concerns. I'm still here to help. Take care always, and more power to your institution!

I agree completely.  I'm having the same issue.  Have called and then as they are helping me I get disconnected.  Maybe they don't know how to help?

Welcome to the QuickBooks Community, twosunaz. This isn't the experience we want you to have when contacting our customer service. Also, I can see how vital it is to avoid the notification about tax penalties in QBO. Let me redirect you to our support team so that we can assist you further.

I suggest contacting our QuickBooks Support Team again. They're the best support group as they can request account information which is needed in investigating the cause of the issue and fixing the problem with tax penalties as soon as possible.

Lastly, you may refer to this article if you need help running different reports you can use to view useful info about your employees and payroll tax data: Run payroll reports.

Don't hesitate to post again here in QuickBooks Community if you have additional questions about the tax penalties. I'll be right here to help, twosunaz. Have a great day!

WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO CONTACT SUPPORT EVERY SINGLE TIME WE NEED TO FIX A PAYCHECK!!!!!!! Some people use this SOFTWARE to log items AFTER the fact rather than running through it. I am someone who does book keeping. One business is ran by an older man who does everything manually with paper checks, including payroll. I only go in once every other month and enter all the transactions and tax payments he made MANUALLY. The only reason I do this is so his accountant has easy access to the books come January and taxes need to be filed. Now, I can no longer do that because I cannot enter prior paychecks and have it populate the RT-6 form correctly the way he mailed it via USPS.

This is obnoxious, out of line. You are not the IRS. You are supposed to serve customers and let them FULLY CUSTOMIZE their bookkeeping the way they want. If I want to bypass that message, I should be able to. I am cancelling QBO the way so many in this thread have. This is ridiculous.
