(Accounting Today) Intuit has announced that it is retiring Intuit Online Payroll and moving all users of the product to QuickBooks Online Payroll. The company said it wants to streamline its focus on payroll products, and that the QuickBooks platform offers more modern payroll plans with more features and better ongoing development support.

Intuit Online Payroll users will be able to close out the calendar year of 2021 before the transition, at which time Intuit will assist with the move to make the change as seamless as possible. Intuit Online Payroll employee data, past payroll and tax information will be ready in the QuickBooks Online Payroll product as soon as accountants or their clients log in after the shift.

Marty’s Thoughts

"Integrating critical systems like payroll and bookkeeping makes sense. Systems that “talk” to each other and share data are often more efficient.

QuickBooks Online Payroll has features that were not offered in Intuit’s Online Payroll application like automated taxes, same day direct deposit, time tracking and HR support. Clients will benefit from using one system for all these functions."
We are available to help with the transition from Intuit Online Payroll to QuickBooks Online Payroll.
