How do I change the pension contribution rate for a specific employee?

QuickBooks Online

So it can't be amended for an individual employee?

It can be edited for individual employees - select the employee under the employee list and you will be able to follow the instructions left by my colleague above to change it specifically for them. :)

Thanks,

Talia

Hello there, @Emma29.

Thanks for posting here in the Community, I'm here to help update the pension contribution rate for your employee.

Here's how:

Go to the Employees tab in the left menu.
Click the name of the employee.
Select the Pencil icon in the Auto Enrollment section.
Edit the pension contribution rate.
Click Save.

As additional information, read through our help article: Workplace pensions in QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll. It helps you learn about auto-enrollment for workforce pensions.

Let me know if you need help with anything else. We're always here to assist. All the best!

Hey Emma29,

If there is no pencil icon you should be able to click anywhere on the Auto enrollment box on the employees settings and the panel will appear on the right hand side allowing you to edit the contribution amounts.

These steps are for the standard payroll however we do also offer the Advanced and PaySuite software for payroll in QuickBooks Online; please confirm which version you are using if you are unable to follow the steps above.
