How do I add Bereavement hours to a salaried employee?

Hi there,

 

Welcome to the Community. I'd be happy to assist with sharing more info about adding bereavement hours to a salaried employee. 

 

To accomplish this you'll need add Bereavement as a pay type:

  1.  Click the Employees tab.
  2.     Select the employee name.
  3.     In the Pay section, click Edit.
  4.     Under Additional pay, select the Commission checkbox.Note: If the Commission pay type is displayed, click Show additional pay types. If it's not included in the pay type list, contact us.
  5.     If you want to change the name of the pay type, click Edit and enter a (Bereavement).
  6.     Click Save. When you create a regularly scheduled paycheck or an unscheduled check for the employee, the Commission field appears in the compensation section of the Enter Employee Pay Details page. 

When you're running your payroll, you'll have an option to add the hours to the salaried employee. You can select the Adjust Salary this time option to enter the hours.  Here's a screenshot for visual reference:

 

 

Give this a try and let me know if you have questions. I'll be here to help. :)

Are you able to add the bereavement as hours somehow? Similar to vacation or sick hours.

I don’t want to add it as a dollar amount.

Yes, once you add it as a pay type, you'll be able to enter the hours when running payroll. Have you already created it as a pay type?

Yes. I changed commission to bereavement. But when I run payroll that column is a dollar amount, not an hourly amount. Like your screen shot below.
