Is there a way to have our salaried staff expensed under overhead? How would I set this up?

Eastbridge Craftsmen · ‎June 19, 2023

Our hourly staff are all tracked by our project, but we are trying to figure out what our profit margin needs to be to cover all fixed costs. There are 2 salaried workers that are essential, but not directly contributing to projects. How can I account for this as the payroll automatically assigns the payroll to payroll expense.
