QuickBooks follows the federal standards for social security numbers. If entering the social security number causes QuickBooks to display an error message, double check the number again with the employee’s social security card or contact the local Social Security Administration to check the validity of the number.

The custom fields can be defined for a wide variety of purposes including date of last raise, date of last review, amount of last raise, spouse name, etc. To set up the label for the free form boxes, click the define fields box.
