What Employee Payroll Items Do

Employee Payroll Items apply an earning or deduction to a specific employee for a specific period or setup.

Use them when only one employee, or a selected group of employees, should receive an item.

Practical Example

An employee has a one-time deduction of $75 for uniform replacement in the January 1 to January 15 payroll.

Add the deduction to that employee for the correct period, run Draft Review, and confirm the employee's net pay is reduced by $75.

Basic Steps

1. Open the Payroll Items or Payroll Items Setup screen.
2. Select the employee or employees.
3. Select the item type.
4. Enter the amount or percentage.
5. Select the period if required.
6. Save.
7. Review the result in Draft Review or Make Payment V2.

Common Mistakes

• Applying a one-time item as a recurring item.
• Adding the item to all employees instead of one employee.
• Entering the wrong period.
• Forgetting to remove or end a temporary item.
