I know some options to pay your employees using a flat amount, wellbeing901. I'll be pleased to share it with you here to keep you guided.
In QuickBooks Online payroll, setting up your employee as salaried allows you to use a flat amount when paying them, rather than hours. With this, the available pay schedules are per year, month, and week.
Here's how to change an employee type:
- Head to Payroll in the left pane.
- Select Employees, then click the employee from the list.
- Scroll down to the Pay types section and hit Edit.
- In the Set employee type, choose Salary from the Pay type dropdown.
- Specify the Pay frequency, then enter the amount in the Salary field.
- Click Save once done.
Additionally, the amount you set up from their profile will automatically fill the paycheck. Hence, you'll need to change the amount in their profile every time you want to pay them as modifying it when running payroll is unavailable.
Alternatively, you can add Other Earnings to pay your employee using a flat amount. With this, ensure that the hours are zeroed out when creating the paycheck. Also, you can alter the amount directly in the paycheck form when necessary.
Here's how:
- In the Edit pay types window, go to the Common pay types section.
- Tick Other Earnings, then key in the amount.
- Select the Save button.
