Time-Consuming Procedure to Map Payroll Items in QuickBooks

Keeping these factors in mind:
- Payroll elements can only be mapped by administrators.
- If employees are paid for overtime or double time, double-check that QuickBooks has the relevant payroll items for them.
- Enable overtime tracking in QuickBooks Time by going to the ‘Company Settings’ option, selecting on the ‘Payroll & Overtime’ tab, and then choosing the ‘vertime’ option.
Follow the steps below
Step-1: Preparing QuickBooks Payroll Items for Mapping –
QuickBooks Online Plus, Essentials, or Advanced Mapping:
During the configuration of the QuickBooks Time and QuickBooks Online connectivity, the initial payroll item mapping works. If you want to change any of your previously mapped payroll items, follow the steps below:
- Select ‘QuickBooks Online Integration Preferences’ from the drop-down menu.
- To activate this, check the ‘Use QuickBooks Online for payroll’ box.
QuickBooks Desktop Mapping:
- You must also set up the QuickBooks Time and QuickBooks Desktop connections, as well as map payroll items, at this time.
Important: Before syncing, make sure you’re logged in as the administrator and in single-user mode in QuickBooks Desktop.
Step-2: Payroll Items to QuickBooks Hour Items
You have 3 options for mapping your payroll items:
1. Employee Payroll Item Map:
Use the Employee option if you want to assign a default payroll item to track each type of hour your employees work. In QuickBooks, a payroll item will be set to track each employee’s regular, double-time, and overtime hours.
- Choose the ‘QuickBooks’ option in the top right corner of QuickBooks Time, then go to the ‘Preferences’ menu.
- Following that, select the ‘Payroll Item Mapping Tool.’
- On the Employee Map tab, you should select an employee’s name.
- For each hour type column, select one payroll item. It will save on its own.
2. Customer/ Service/ Item/ Class: Map Payroll Items
If you want to attach payroll items to customers, service items, or classes, you’ll need to make an employee default for any unmapped customer, service item, or class.
- After you’ve mapped payroll items by employee, go to the ‘QuickBooks’ selection at the top right of QuickBooks Time and select the ‘Preferences’ option.
- Following that, select the ‘Payroll Item Mapping Tool.’
- To access the options, click the ‘Gear’ icon in the right corner of the Payroll Item Mapping Tool.
- Then navigate to the ‘Customer, Service Item, or Class’ settings and check the ‘Allow overrides’ box.
- Choose the + Add Overrides’ option on the Customer Map, Service Item Map, or Class Map tab.
- Then select ‘None’ from the drop-down menu.
- Then you must choose a Customer, a Service Item, or a Class, and then click the ‘Save’ button.
- In each hour type column, select one payroll item.
- Rep until every customer, service item, and class has been appropriately mapped.
- It will save on its own. Close the window once the mapping is complete.
3. Employee Selection Payroll Item Map
If you don’t want to do any mapping and your employees choose their own payroll items, this is an option. On your account, you can set their check-in and check-out times.
Allow employees to pick and select the payroll components they want:)
