I'd be delighted to walk you through the steps in adding yourself to your payroll, @Valleywide.
 

Before we begin, I recommend working with your accountant for the best advice on whether to pay yourself via payroll or an owner's draw. This way, we can ensure the accuracy of your account after setting it up.

 

I'm adding this article for additional reference: Salary vs. owner's draw: How to pay yourself as a business owner.

 

Nonetheless, you can follow these steps in adding yourself to your payroll:

 

  1. Go to the Payroll or Employees menu in your QuickBooks Online (QBO) account.
  2. Select the Employees tab, then click Add an employee.
  3. Enter the needed details in each section, then select Done.

 

You can also check this article for the complete details: Add your new employee to QuickBooks Payroll.

 

Once you're all set, you might want to utilize this resource that can guide you in filing your payroll taxes: Pay and file payroll taxes and forms in Online Payroll.

 

I'm always here to back you up if you have any other concerns or questions about payroll and QBO. Stay safe and have a good one!
