In a nutshell this 1-hour webinar will cover Intuit’s three new QBO Payroll offerings, Core, Basic and Elite. The features of each of the new offerings will be presented including the benefits of each offering, differences between the offerings, and subscription price(s). In addition, the webinar will present how to setup QBO Payroll for Core, Basic and Elite accounts covering the basics of setup along with advanced setup issues like troubleshooting of common setup issues. But that's simply promotion to the webinar, in this article I want to tell you a little more of the 'why' you should want to learn more about these payroll offerings, and why you really need to learn more about these new offerings.
First - Feature Richness
QuickBooks Online Core, Premium, and Elite (our newest offering) are packed with new and improved features so you and your clients can conquer payroll with confidence. With all three products, you can run payroll pretty much automatically and access a collection of Human Resource and employee services. You can also track time with TSheets with a Premium or Elite subscription, then each workers’ hours will automatically appear in QuickBooks making it easier than ever to view, approve, and run payroll in minutes.
By the way for accounting professionals, like QuickBooks ProAdvisors making use of QuickBooks Online Accountant, you will get access to QuickBooks Online Elite Payroll at no extra cost. Elite is backed by a new guarantee from Intuit and comes with their most advanced features. You’ll even be able to talk to an HR expert if you have questions, and Intuit will even assist you with set up payroll for yourself or your new QBO Elite Payroll customers.
But even though Intuit will help you out with your 'Elite' customers, wouldn't you prefer to 'be their professional payroll advisor' and guide them through set-up and implementation without having to get Intuit involved? Don't you want to be that 'trusted advisor' that they look at as their Payroll hero to resolve the issues when they need help? That's why you need this webinar.
Second - Training/Certification
If you didn't know it already Intuit now offers a 'Payroll' Certification course which is specific to QuickBooks Online Payroll. That course is designed to create an awareness of how QuickBooks clients can benefit from using QuickBooks Online Payroll. It is designed to equip QuickBooks ProAdvisors to be able to setup and run a payroll along with providing the ability to perform some key troubleshooting and advanced setup tasks.
While that 3-hour course was the first generation of Payroll training by Intuit, the Webinar Insightful Accountant takes the concepts to the next level to incorporate the new payroll offerings, set-up issues, complications and troubleshooting methods. Further it's being instructed by one of the same content authors who developed the original materials.
You will be ahead of the game when it comes time for the next round of payroll certification that incorporates the new payroll offerings. And even though this webinar doesn't offer CPE, you will still be able to say, "I learned it first". You will also have that all important extra webinar credential when it comes to training points the next time you are looking for certification credits to boost your standing.
