Adding employers and payers to the Client List

Eric Updated by Eric

Introduction

An unlimited number of Employers (who you'll generate W2's for) and Payers (who you'll generate 1099s for) can be added to Payroll System's Client List. The Client will store tax, deduction, and withholding items that need to be calculated on paychecks and returns. Payroll System will automatically include these Payroll Items that are appropriate for the Client's state, but you can add, edit, or remove them.

  1. Open Payroll System.
  2. Click Add Client.
  3. The Add Employer/Payer dialog appears. Fill in the fields.
