Hello @CJR45 ,
The instructions below tell you how to adjust amounts so that the employee's vacation accrual is correct, but did not really answer your question.
If you are paying Vacation for a salaried employee who is actually taking the vacation time, then you would use the Vacation Salary payroll item, and the regular salary will adjust itself. For example, an 80 hour bi-weekly salary might be $3,200.00. If the employee took one week or 40 hrs of vacation, you would enter the Salary item with 40 hours (which will automatically adjust to $1,600) and the Vacation Salary item with 40 hours (which will also automatically adjust to $1,600).
If the employee has requested vacation pay without actually taking the time, then you would use the VacPay-Accrual Paid Out. When you use this item, your salary item will not be affected and it will let you add $1,000 to the gross earnings of the pay cheque; i.e. the employee would have $3,200 and 80 hours to Salary and $1,000 to VacPay-Accrual Paid Out for a total of $4,200 for that pay cheque.
