Quickbooks Online Advanced Payroll - Adding extra leave entitlement

Hi there, MooreSpeed.

I can guide you in setting up an extra leave entitlement for your employees in QuickBooks Online Advanced Payroll.

To do this, you can add a holiday leave category. And set it to automatically accrue and choose based on the employee's leave year. Then, under the Standard allowance field, enter six and select Standard days per year. To see the calculation, click on the calculator beside the figure you enter six. From there, you'll see that the employee should accrue an extra six days per year.

For more details on setting up leave categories, see this article: Adding Leave Categories and Accrual in QuickBooks Online Advanced Payroll.

Furthermore, I have included a valuable resource that contains a detailed compilation of all the materials necessary for mastering the essential functionalities of QuickBooks Online Advanced: QuickBooks Online Advanced resource hub.

If there's anything else you need help with in adding a leave for your employees, let me know by commenting below. I'll be more than happy to help. Have a great day!

Hi MirriamM,

Thanks for your response.

I have set this up, but it opens up a few more questions. I would assume that the best option would be to setup a leave allowance template for each holiday bonus amount (0.5 days, 1.0 days, 1.5 days etc) and assign the correct leave allowance template to the employee based on their length of service?

Second to this, does it then make it confusing for the employee, because they have to apply to take 'holiday bonus' leave separately to their annual leave? Can't i just increase the normal annual leave amount?

So for your first question if you go to payroll>payroll settings>under pay run settings- leave categories>add top right-hand corner in green>enter the information you need like MirriamM has told you in her reply to your original post. so you would create one for each of the holiday amounts so one will be for the 0.5 and then one for the 1.0 and then one for 1.5 ect.
