Unpaid leave for a salaried employee

Good afternoon, I have an employee who was left with a depleted balance on PTO.  He has a day coming up and he wants to take it without pay rather than having to use any more PTO (we allow negative balances within reason).  How do I set this up so he doesn't get paid just for that one day where he is salaried?

 

I use Quickbooks Online Payroll.

 

Thank you in advance for any assistance,

Unpaid leave for a salaried employee

Thanks for reaching out to the Community, Lisa2112. I appreciate your detailed information.

 

You can set up an employee's unpaid time off pay policies to track their accruals in your product. These policies can also be updated anytime if necessary.

 

Here's how to set up a time off pay policy:
 

  1. In the left navigation bar, go to Payroll, then Employees.
  2. Locate and access your employee's profile.
  3. From the Pay types section, click Start or Edit.
  4. Scroll down to your Time off policies section.
  5. Use the Drop-Down Arrow (▼) icon and choose Add new [time off pay] policy. Pick Paid time off, Unpiad time off, Sick Pay, or Vacation Pay.
  6. Complete your on-screen fields to create the policy, then hit Save.
  7. Select Save.

 

Your policy will now be available to all employees.

 

I've also included a detailed resource about working with payroll which may come in handy moving forward: Set up & track time off
