How to export the list(s) from QB

Or see the Readme file included with the Plugin for details on exporting this file from QB.

 

The Plugin opens, initialized with Payroll Item and Employee information.

STEP #1: Set the quarter and year of the reporting period if the default is not correct.

Click on the Notices tab.

Please read the notices on this page.

Internet links are provided in case you need more information to complete and file your return.

 

Now, follow the steps indicated on the Plugin.

STEP #2: Click on the Setup Payroll Items tab.

The Plugin will attempt to automatically select the correct payroll item(s). If this does not occur, you can rename the payroll item(s) in QB to match the name(s) shown in the Payroll Items to select box so that they will auto-select in the future.

To manually select the items, using the mouse, drag the indicated Payroll Item(s) from the QB Payroll Items list on the left to the Payroll Items to report list on the right.

You can also select the item and click the button between the lists, or double-click the item, to move it to the Payroll Items to report list.

To delete an item in the Payroll Items to report list, select it and press the Delete key, or click the Trashcan button.

(note: Curly Brackets are used to combine payroll items into a single amount for reporting purposes. The Curly Brackets and the text contained are ignored during calculation. For example, if you select a Payroll Item to report named CA - Withholding and you also have a QB Payroll Item named CA - Withholding {extra}, any amounts for either item will be calculated as one total.)

  

STEP #3: Click on the Get Data tab.

All employees in the QB file will be shown, including inactive employees. After processing, employees with no activity during the report period will be removed from the list.

(note: Curly Brackets and the text contained is removed from employee names when printing. This allows you to deal with employees with the same name, or to sort your employee list by using a curly bracketed prefix.)

Click the Get QB Data button.

 

(Export Mode only)

A file open dialog will be displayed. Select the "Payroll Transaction Detail Report" exported from QuickBooks.

How to export this report from QB.

When the data retrieval and processing completes, final calculations are made and the data is displayed.

 

STEP #4: Click on the Reconcile tab.

Verify that the rates and values for the Report Period are correct. Make any necessary changes.

The Reconciliation section compares the amounts calculated by QB and retrieved from the QB data with amounts due based on the Report Period rates and limits. Any discrepancies will need to be corrected in QB.

 

 

STEP #5: Click on the Employer Info tab.

Verify the Company information and Account numbers.

(Export Mode Only) The first time you use the Plugin, you will have to enter your Employer Name & Address. It will be saved and automatically filled-in thereafter.

 

STEP #6: Click on the Report tab.

Verify the dates, rates, and values.

Check any boxes next to special circumstances that apply to this report.

 

STEP #7: Click on the Print/e-file tab.

Verify the preparer information and date. Change as necessary.

If you are e-filing, use this step to preview and verify the data.
