completing it on your own in Quickbooks? Why would you want to track employee time against
specific customer jobs? How does QuickBooks handle this functionality?
QuickBooks (QB) includes a payroll feature that will quickly calculate payroll for all employees.
This feature includes gross pay, withholdings, deductions (medical, dental, life insurance,
including wage garnishments), and net pay (Villani and Rosa, 2016). QB payroll includes a
feature that allows employees to access their paystubs online as well as their year-end W2
statements which most employees like. There is a full service QB feature that also includes
filing and paying tax liabilities online. This feature makes what could be an intimidating and
daunting tax filing report to simply the click of a few buttons and both the filing and payments
are done online. Personally, with all the features QB offers I couldn’t imagine out sourcing
payroll.
QB manages man hours per job through the daily time window and the weekly timesheet
window. On either of the time windows the customer job can be noted, and the “billable” box
can be checked. QB then ties those hours checked as “billable” to the customer job. QB will
open a pop-up reminder of billable hours when payroll is entered or when a new invoice for a
customer with billable hours attached is created. QB makes tracking billable hours very easy.
Just a side note when inventory is received for a specific job, the payable can be checked as
billable and associated with the customer job similarly to hours worked. When a new invoice
for the customer is created QB opens a pop-up asking if you want to add the billable inventory
to the invoice.
