Ask Accounting Launches A Comprehensive Guide For Adding An EIN To An Existing Payroll Subscription

New York, USA, August 11, 2023 – QuickBooks accounting software has assisted millions of small and mid-sized business owners in properly managing their finances and records. A few software add-ons may take one of the most effective accounting software to the next level. EIN is one such tool that a user may add to their existing QuickBooks Payroll subscription. Many QuickBooks customers find it difficult to enter their EIN into QuickBooks payroll.

Employer Identification Numbers, often known as tax ids, are nine-digit numbers used by the IRS to track a company’s tax obligations.  Most QuickBooks customers who need to add an EIN to their QuickBooks Payroll Subscription need to know their zip code, service key, and EIN. This article will walk you through each process of adding an EIN to your QuickBooks payroll account, as well as certain limits and criteria. Follow the article all the way to the end for comprehensive and in-depth information.

Criteria and limits to add an EIN to an Existing Payroll Subscription

There are several criteria as well as limits for adding an EIN to QuickBooks payroll. The key criteria and constraints are listed below.

• In order to execute payroll for all firms on one payroll subscription, the user must utilize the same registered copy of QuickBooks Desktop on the same PC.
• QuickBooks Desktop Payroll is set up to only handle one company data file per EIN. If you attempt to use several business files under the same EIN and payroll subscription, you may face difficulties.
• The contact details and QuickBooks Desktop payroll manager for the payroll subscription will remain identical for all companies included in a single subscription.
• If you utilize Direct Deposit (DD) to pay your employees, you can have many firms (independent data files with distinct EINs) on the same DIY Payroll subscription.
• Each QB Desktop Payroll service can only add a restricted number of firms to a single subscription. Please keep in mind that the limit is determined by firm data files rather than staff numbers.
• If the user owns an Enhanced Payroll for Accountants license, it is not suggested that service keys be given to customers. This may expose the payroll subscription account to unauthorized users.
