    Hi Dennis,

    I am an Intuit employee and noticed your comment. I believe the information you are looking for is contained in the Overview section of the article "Change SUI rate" http://payroll.intuit.com/support/kb/1000245.html. I hope this helps. Thank you for posting a comment.

    Dennis, if you are looking for your established rate with the state, and you have paid SUI taxes in the past, they should have sent you a notice at the first of the year for your rate for 2013. If you are new to SUI taxes, you must file an application with the state to establish your account. Each state has a different beginning rate. Then you can put the rate into your payroll file by going to Payroll Setup.

    thanks.

    If I understand properly. You would get your sui rate from your state. Every state/company is different.

    I usually get a mailing/email sometime in December. You can go to your state's website, or call if you didn't get a mailing/email.

    Melissa2/14/2013

    Your SUI rates come from your State Department of Labor & Commerce, that is what it is called in Idaho. It, in Idaho, is usually mailed to the business in December for the following year.

    If you have not received your 2013 SUI rates, call your State Unemployment office for those rates, then follow Jo Ann's article on how to change the rates in Quickbooks.

    Hi William,

    I'm from Intuit and saw your comment. The article Activating a payroll service purchased from a retail store should provide more information about the payroll services offered in boxed software.

    How do I get the Disability Company rate? Is that the SUI rate?

    Melody4/4/2013

    Hi Tamara,

    SDI and SUI are actually not the same and that you may need to get the rate of your SDI in your State Agency. This article Verify and change your State Disability Insurance (SDI) rate will help you with this.

    In the payroll section of the program: when I go under individual employees' records, I used to be able to add notes. This updated 2013 version does not have that field.

    Reply

    Susan5/28/2013

    Hi Julie,

    In QuickBooks 2013 the Notes section is still available. To see it, access the Employee Center. Click the employee name once, and to the right you will see the Employee Information display. Click the Notes tab to see notes. In the Notes tab, click the Manage Notes button at the bottom to add, edit or delete notes. Thanks for your comment.
