Payroll

I have yet to find one positive comment in relation to the change of making all new payroll clients use automatic filing and payments. Is this still being considered in light of all this negative feedback from ACCOUNTANT users? Are there ANY plans to fix the current product before making users deal with the new issues and errors the changeover will inevitably cause? In other words, does Intuit really plan to build new ailments into a system already on life support for some taxing jurisdictions?

I have a client who provides both SIMPLE IRA and Healthcare plans. QBO deducts the Healthcare deduction from gross payroll before calculating the percentage of employee contribution and employer matching contribution. EXAMPLE Employee earns $10,000 per pay cycle. Contributes 3% to retirement and $300 to the healthcare plan. QBO incorrectly calculates the retirement contribution and matching employer contribution as $10,000 - 300 = $9,700 * 3% = $291 It should be $10,000 * 3% = $300 That $9 difference becomes $9 2 12 = $168 per year, NOT added to retirement. Or, $84 per year that the employee NEVER receives from the employer.

Will there be any effect on customers who have already turned off the automatic payroll tax filings feature after the November 15, 2025 effective date?
