how to choose the California wage plan code for a Landscape helper

You can find it under the Tax Withholdings section of their profile, JJ.

In QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can assign the wage plan code directly within the Tax Withholdings section of your employee's profile. This classification helps accurately track job roles and workers' compensation insurance. 

Before proceeding, it's crucial to verify the correct wage plan code that corresponds with the employee's specific duties. Assigning the wrong code can lead to compliance issues or inaccuracies in workers’ compensation reporting.

If you’re uncertain about which code to use, I recommend consulting the official California Employment Development Department (EDD) publications or contacting the EDD's Taxpayer Assistance Center for guidance.

Here's how to select the wage plan code for your employee:

1. Navigate to your helper's profile in QBO.
2. Go to the Tax Withholdings section and click on Edit.
3. Look for the California Wage Plan Code field.
4. From the Wage Plan Code dropdown, select the appropriate code.
5. Hit on Save.

Feel free to ask if you need clarification on these steps or help with any other tasks in QBO.
