Intuit Assist

QuickBooks’ AI-powered Payroll Agent that proactively collects employee time and attendance, flags inconsistencies, and alerts admins so payroll can be run quickly and confidently from anywhere.

QuickBooks Workforce offers an intuitive interface for running and tracking payroll, with automated calculations that simplify each pay cycle.

Navigation is customizable, allowing users to prioritize frequently used tools, and role-based permissions help control access for administrators and staff. Reporting is organized within a dedicated dashboard, making payroll summaries and tax records easy to locate.

You’ll start by signing in as the primary admin and following a guided setup that walks you through entering your business details, choosing your first payroll date, and confirming whether you’ve already paid employees this year. You’ll then add your employees and their pay and tax information, connect your bank account for direct deposit, and set up your federal and state tax details — with the option to get help from a QuickBooks expert to ensure you’re ready to confidently run your first payroll.

You can access a dedicated QuickBooks Online Payroll help hub as well as payroll troubleshooting resources for urgent issues. Higher-tier plans also include HR advisory services, while broader account-related concerns are handled through the general QuickBooks support portal.

Together, these resources provide structured self-service guidance with access to live support when needed.

Payroll data syncs directly with QuickBooks Online, keeping wages, taxes, and expenses aligned with your accounting records.

It also connects with payroll and workforce apps through the QuickBooks App Store, including tools like RUN Powered by ADP, Square Payroll, Patriot Payroll, Hour Timesheet, and Jibble.
