Why does QB still notify me to pay payroll taxes when it is on autopay?

Thank you for your inquiry, @jbwelsh0410. Let me explain why QuickBooks notifies you to pay payroll taxes even though it is on autopay.

It's important to note that QuickBooks sends these payment notifications intentionally, even when paying payroll taxes is set to autopay. This feature serves several purposes:

• Keeps you informed about upcoming tax obligations
• Ensures you have enough funds for the payment
• Allows you to identify and correct any potential errors
• Maintains your oversight of payroll tax processes
• Provides an audit trail of your awareness
• Helps with cash flow management

The notifications serve as a safeguard, not a malfunction. They are part of QuickBooks' commitment to helping you stay informed and compliant, even when using automated features.

Furthermore, I'll share these articles for guidance on your payroll tasks:

• Add pay history to QuickBooks Online Payroll
• Print or reprint paychecks and pay stubs
• Year-end checklist for QuickBooks Online Payroll
