BQE CORE will soon include the payroll feature powered by Gusto, providing a fully embedded payroll solution directly within CORE. This will allow you to manage payroll seamlessly without relying on external applications.
In the meantime, if you want to explore alternative payroll options, CORE integrates with accounting platforms such as Intuit QuickBooks online/desktop version, Xero Accounting, and MYOB AccountRight, all of which include payroll functionality. Check out CORE Help Center for details.
