Hi QB experts, I have 2 questions. 1. Is there a holiday calculator in QB 2. If I know how many off hours my staff accrued, can I somehow add this info to payslip? Thanks

QuickBooks Online Payroll has a feature where you can track the employee's vacation hours, ALICJA.

I'd be glad to show you the steps on how you can set it up. Here's how:

1. Go to the Payroll menu and proceed to the Employees tab.
2. Click the name of the employee.
3. Go to the Pay section, and click the Edit or Pencil icon  ✎.
4. Scroll-down to the  the How much do you pay [employee]? section, click the Edit or Pencil icon ✎.
5. Select Paid time off,   Vacation Pay or Holiday Pay.
6. Select your vacation or holiday pay policy. You can also select New paid time off policy.
7. Enter all required details.
8. Click OK, then Done.

Once done, QuickBooks will start to track the employee's holiday or vacation accrual. It will also show up on their payslips once added on their profile.

Let me share these guide articles for more details: 

• Set Up And Track Time Off In Payroll
• Enter Sick Pay Or Vacation Pay Hours For Salaried Employees
• How To See Sick Or Vacation Time On A Paycheck

Let me know if you need more help when tracking their holiday pay. I''ll get back here to guide you again.

Thanks for your time, but I can't find that Pay Section u mentioned...

Under the employees I have the following

- Personal details

- Employment details

- Tax information

- Workplace pension

- Pay schedule

- Pay history

In none of these I can find settings you mentioned.

Once again thank you

Hello @ALICJA,

I appreciate you for getting back to us here in the Community. I can share some clarification about the steps provided above.

To view the Pay section, you'll need to click the pencil icon beside Pay from the Employee details tab. After that, you can scroll down to number four (How much do you pay Employee?) and click the pencil icon to check the list of different pay types.

Please follow the detailed steps below:

1. On the left panel, hover your cursor to Payroll and select Employees.
2. Click the employee name.
3. Press the pencil icon next to Pay. 
4. Scroll down to How much do you pay Employee?, then click the pencil icon to edit. 
5. Under You can also pay Employee, choose Paid time off, Vacation Pay, or Holiday Pay. 
6. Hit Done.

You can also check this article for more details about how your employee can view their payroll information using QuickBooks Workforce: Invite your employees to QuickBooks Workforce to see pay stubs, W-2s and more.

Thank you, 

My QB looks bit different... what do I do wrong?

Also... does it matter where I live/business is located? I am in UK but there is a US flag appearing next to my name... does it make any difference to how the QB looks like?

Hi Alicja, the flag relates to the Community section you are asking questions in. You have been forwarded to the UK team. It looks like you are using QuickBooks Online payroll is that right, as opposed to the other option advanced payroll?

Hi EmmaM, 

Yes, QB Online

Thank u for your time 

It is me again. Will I get notified is someone from UK community responds?

Thank you

If you click on your profile name and a notification would show for you. 

Also, you will get alerted via email once you have been tagged in the reply post.  

I might be wrong... but seems like within all these almost 2 weeks no reply from the UK site :/ 

Looks like I need to move

Hello, 

It's the end of the month, I am just about to run payroll and completely forgot about query. 

Still no answer from anyone here in UK

Is this something we can continue as per your previous post?

Thank you sooo sooo much

Hello there, ALICJA.

While the option to add the accrued hours in the employee's payslip is unavailable, you can manually enter it in the Memo or Notes field. This has been sent as feedback and I'll send a notification again so we can this to our future updates. 

My colleagues attached helpful articles that you might want to look into. 

Always know the Community is available 24/7. Take care and have a great day!

Was a solution to this ever found? I am having the same problem. All of the guidance says to go to the Pay section but my version doesn't have one!
