How Do I Activate “View My Paycheck”?

Managing payroll digitally has become much easier with QuickBooks Workforce (formerly known as View My Paycheck). Many employees still search for how to activate and access their pay stubs online, especially when setting it up for the first time.

This guide explains how to activate View My Paycheck, how it works today, and what to do if you are unable to access your payroll details.

What Is “View My Paycheck”?

“View My Paycheck” was an older Intuit payroll feature that allowed employees to view pay stubs online. It has now been replaced by QuickBooks Workforce, a more secure and modern payroll access system.

With QuickBooks Workforce, employees can:

• View pay stubs online anytime

• Download or print paycheck details

• Access tax forms like W-2 (if enabled by employer)

• Track payroll history securely

Today, most businesses use QuickBooks Workforce instead of the old View My Paycheck system.
