Changes to Nevada Minimum Wage




Hi, I'm the QuickBooks Gal. Today's Quicklet is a reminder to those of you who process your own payroll that on July 22, 2007 the new Federal Minimum Wage Law took effect.

There are several guidelines that we employers should be aware of now in order to assure proper compliance. In addition, many state or local statutes may have been revised, so you might want to check with your state's labor commission regarding the new Federal guidelines and any additional state regulation that may apply.

Here in Nevada, state minimum wage regulations are impacted by a law that became effective on July 1, 2007. If you do not use a payroll company such as ADP, Odyssey Business Services, or Payroll Systems of Nevada, you should make sure that you understand the new statutes with particular regard to how hourly overtime is calculated in order to assure that you are in compliance.

I've put a link on my blog for Nevada employers who want more information on the new state regulations. In Nevada, follow this link to the Nevada Office of The Labor Comissioner for more information about how these new laws will affect your employees and how you must comply.

That's it for now...I hope you find this information helpful. Join me next time for another in our series of Quicklets, informational podcasts about QuickBooks and bookkeeping related topics. If you have questions or suggestions, please email me at jayne@quickbooksgal.com.

I'm Jayne Miller, The QuickBooks Gal. Thanks for listening.

How to "Un" Apply Credits In QuickBooks

Image
Got a QuickBooks Mess? Call The QuickBooks Gal! Welcome to the QuickBooks Minute. I’m Jayne Miller, the QuickBooks Gal Recently, one of our Reno QuickBooks customers asked about "unapplying" credits in QuickBooks. While there are nicely labeled apply credits buttons, there are none marked unapply. This is the case for both customers (invoicing) and vendors (paying bills). So here is how it is done: For customers, it is a fairly easy process. Go to the invoice to which the credit was applied. Then click on the "Apply Credits" button. In the lower half of the new window that pops up is a list of Previously Applied Credits. Simply find the one, or ones you wish to unapply and click on the check mark next to it to make the check mark disappear. The credit will no longer be applied or tied to that invoice. For Vendors, i.e. bill payments, it is not as clean and simple. The only way to unapply a credit in such a case is to Delete the credit. You can then

QuickBooks Password Protection

QuickBooks now requires your employees to enter a password to view their pay stubs when you e-mail them. QuickBooks generates the passwords automatically; each password consists of the first four letters of the employee's last name followed by the last four digits of their Social Security number. Examples Name:                            SSN:                         Pay Stub Password: Ben Narramore              855-56-4545             narr4545 Deb D'Spain                  782-34-3419             dspa3419 Jimmy Wu                     903-88-7465             wu7465 Note that all characters must be entered in lowercase and punctuation characters are not included in the password. When a last name has fewer than four characters, the whole last name is used (like in wu above) but no additional characters are added. You will need to inform each employee of this new password requirement
