How do you pay a salaries employee that doesnt work the full work week

Let me share information on how to pay your employee who worked under time.

 

If your employee is a Salaried Employee, we should pay them regardless of how many hours they worked each week. 

 

However, if your employee is just a regular employee, we should determine their Hours Worked and Equivalent Salary Amount:

  1. To begin with, calculate the hours worked by the salaried employee during the partial work week. 
  2. Once done, convert these hours into an equivalent salary based on their fixed rate for the pay period. 
  3. Then, let's override the Employee's Pay: 
  • Go to the Employees section from the left menu.
  • Select Run Payroll.
  • Locate the salaried employee you wish to pay partially.
  • Edit the pay and hours as needed, adjusting for the partial work week.
  • Preview and then submit payroll. 
  • Click Finished Payroll.

 

Additionally, you can check out this article to learn how to set up additional pay items: Add or change pay types.

 

In case you need to change an employee's information, please refer to this article: Edit or change employee info in payroll.

 

I'll be around if you need further assistance on how to pay your employee or have any QuickBooks-related concerns. Keep safe.
