The payroll
process is much more than just printing
paychecks. In fact, before you even attempt to
process payroll in QuickBooks, you must have a
good understanding of tax withholding
requirements and reporting deadlines, among
other things. In this first lesson, you'll learn
where to find the information you need to comply
with both federal and state payroll
requirements, how to apply for an employer
identification number, and how to utilize
government Web sites to get answers to any
payroll questions. You’ll even learn how to
properly classify workers as employees or
independent contractors.
Friday - Lesson 02
One of the key
advantages of processing payroll in QuickBooks
is that the program automatically calculates and
fills in federal and state tax withholdings on
each paycheck. You'll need to subscribe to one
of Intuit’s payroll services to ensure that you
always have the most up-to-date tables and
forms. This lesson will identify the differences
between the payroll services provided by Intuit,
and you'll prepare to choose the appropriate
payroll service that fits your situation. Also,
in this lesson a visit to Intuit's Web site will
be undertaken, and you'll gain insight about the
various support resources directly from Intuit
and other professionals who use the product.
Week Two
Wednesday - Lesson 03
This
lesson will go over a checklist of the
information you'll need to gather and enter into
your QuickBooks file before creating paychecks
for your employees. Also, you'll learn how to
utilize the Payroll Preferences feature in
QuickBooks to customize the program to your
business. Last, this lesson will go over why
Payroll Items are so important to QuickBooks,
and how you can use these items to track every
paycheck addition or deduction.
Friday - Lesson 04
Making a simple
mistake, like entering an incorrect allowance
for an employee’s federal tax withholding, will
result in an incorrect paycheck. In this lesson,
you’ll learn how to avoid such mistakes by
properly entering your employees' information
from paperwork gathered in the previous three
lessons. Also, this lesson will walk you through
how to enter personal information, such as
addresses, phone numbers, and Social Security
numbers, in a step-by-step process. Finally,
you’ll learn how to create defined fields and
enter tax withholding amounts and employee sick
and vacation time.
Week Three
Wednesday - Lesson 05-
If you decide to
start producing paychecks in QuickBooks
mid-year, you'll need to enter some year-to-date
information to let QuickBooks know what payroll
transactions have transpired since the beginning
of the year. In this lesson, you'll learn about
entering year-to-date payroll information and
utilizing the QuickBooks year-to-date wizard to
summarize each employee's information. In
addition, you’ll find out how to summarize and
enter tax liabilities already paid earlier in
the year, and how to generate certain payroll
reports to check your data entry.
Friday - Lesson 06
If you have
employees who are assigned to work on
specific projects and you need to track how
much time they spend on those projects, then
QuickBooks has some options for you. In this
lesson, you'll see how to enter and track
employee time in QuickBooks. Then, you’ll
learn how to enter employee time using
either the Stopwatch, Timer program, or the
Weekly/Single Activity Timesheets. Depending
upon your situation, one of these methods
will be most effective for entering and
reporting employee time data. In addition,
you'll learn how to assign employee time to
the jobs you've created in QuickBooks in
order to produce valuable job costing
reports.
Week Four
Wednesday - Lesson 07
Now that the
payroll setup process is essentially
complete, in this lesson, you'll learn how
to create a new paycheck for an employee
using a Payroll Schedule. In addition to
this, this lesson will show you how to
create paychecks using information entered
on a time activity form, and how to review,
correct, and, if necessary, void or delete a
paycheck. And if you have to provide paper
copies of a paycheck or pay-stub, this
lesson will show you how to review them for
accuracy and then how to print them.
Friday - Lesson 08
Every company
that has employees is responsible for various
payroll liabilities. Luckily, QuickBooks has a
Scheduled Payments feature that allows you to
create reminders of when to pay these various
liabilities, and will be explored in this
lesson. You'll also learn how to e-file
liability checks and create printed liability
checks that include assessed penalties. Since
you don't always pay Payroll liabilities to
governmental agencies, you'll also learn how to
use the payroll feature to track and pay other
payroll items, such as health insurance premiums
and 401K contributions. By the end of this
lesson, you'll understand the process required
to adjust the balances due for each payroll tax
item and record a refund of payroll taxes.
Week Five
Wednesday - Lesson 09
No payroll
process is complete until you've created
paychecks and paid tax liabilities. You must
prepare and file important quarterly and
annual reports with the government. To get a
handle on this crucial responsibility, today
you'll learn QuickBooks' easy-to-follow
steps for generating and revising Federal
Forms 941 and 940. And to make sure your
information is accurate, this lesson will
explain how to review your entries and
compare them to the payroll data included in
your QuickBooks company file.
Friday - Lesson 10
This lesson will
explore one of the more powerful features of the
payroll process in QuickBooks: the reporting
feature. After completing this lesson, you'll
know how to access and generate several of the
preformatted payroll reports in QuickBooks. To
help you avoid costly errors, you'll learn how
to utilize these reports to review payroll data,
identify errors, and even forecast future
payroll obligations.
Week Six
Wednesday - Lesson 11
Benjamin Franklin
once said,"In this world nothing can be said to
be certain, except death and taxes." Today that
saying still holds true! So, to help you with
this inevitable time of year, QuickBooks gives
you the ability to generate Forms W-2 and W-3.
The government requires employers to submit
these summary reports to each employee and
independent contractor. You'll also learn the
best methods to review these forms and make any
necessary adjustments. Before the final printing
of these forms, you'll learn how to properly
align them so that the payroll information is
nicely contained in each box on the form.
Friday - Lesson 12
Since many
QuickBooks users seem to make similar mistakes
when processing payroll, this last lesson will
be focusing on helping you avoid and correct
these mistakes. For instance, you’ll learn what
to do if too many payroll accounts were created
in the Chart of Accounts. Or, what steps you
need to take if you failed to properly use the
Scheduled Payments or Pay Liabilities windows.
You’ll even learn the proper way to enter and
track employee loans.
