Hi rcwurts!
I know how to save the payroll item and rate. Let me show you the steps.
Visit the employee's profile and edit it. From there, we can add the earnings and rate. Here's how:
- Go to the Employees and select Employee Center.
- Click the employee's name and proceed to the Payroll Info tab.
- Add the Salary payroll item and the rate in the Earnings tab.
- Tap OK to save it.
You'll need to manually calculate the worked hours and enter them in the Hours field when running payroll.
For new subscribers of QuickBooks Desktop Payroll, I suggest you check this article: Get started with Payroll. This will show you the steps on how to set up the company file for payroll, how to run payroll, and pay and file federal and state taxes.
I'll be here if you need more help. Take care!
