Entering Gross Wages in After the Fact Payroll By: Kelly Todd, Intuit Accountant Support Agent Product: QuickBooks Payroll Tip Category: Best Practices

Situation

You need to break a client's gross payroll into regular and bonus for Workers' Comp reasons and want to add two columns for the gross in after the fact. When you set the items as payroll items, your efforts to customize the columns takes you to an option where it seems you can't get any further.

Response

After-the-Fact Payroll is available in QuickBooks 2007. While you will not be able to break out "Gross Wages" into separate columns on the main entry form, there is another way to separate out these values. If you click on the View/ Edit Detail button at the bottom of the form, you will be able to separate it out on the actual check. (See below.)
