Join nowI am attempting to enter new L&I rates for 2021 before running our first payroll ever, and I am not sure I have our PTO set up correctly. I created an item name, PTO as an hourly wage item. For L&I, I left Include Sick and Vacation hours unchecked, when I got to the Taxable compensation screen, I cannot uncheck Payroll Item, PTO. Do I have PTO, payroll item setup incorrectly? I want to be sure worker's compensation does not tax PTO hours when paid. Thank you.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hey there, @Leslie1753.
Thanks for reaching out to the Community for support. I'd be happy to provide the steps to setup PTO.
Before we begin, can you clarify if you're using Desktop Payroll or Online Payroll? The steps will differ from which product your using. I've covered the steps for Desktop Payroll below, along with a link that covers the steps for setting up PTO for both products.
For additional steps and steps for Online Payroll check out Set up and track time off in payroll.

Thank you, Tori. We are using online payroll, the screenshots are helpful. I think our best option is to run a test to see if we set up the Paid Time Off item correctly. I appreciate your time.
