Employees and payroll

Disclaimer: I've updated my response to offer other option aside from creating bonus and manually adjust PTO hours.

Thanks for reaching back, Sjones94. When adding hours for Unscheduled Payroll such as Bonus is unavailable. For now, you will need to manually calculate the net or gross pay for the employee and input this amount. This method will allow you to keep track of your additional payroll expenses. Allow me to provide additional information to ensure your employees receive their bonuses seamlessly.

To run Bunos-only payroll option, this will help you to add your employee's bonuses through separate
paychecks. To assist you in this process, you can follow the steps below:

1. Go to Payroll and select Employees.
2. Choose Bonus only from the Run payroll ▼ dropdown.
3. Select As net pay if you know the exact amount you need to pay the employee. Otherwise, select as gross pay.
   
   

• As a net: The employee receives the precise bonus amount. Taxes are still computed, but you will be responsible for paying them.
• As a gross: We will calculate the net amount on your behalf.
  
  

To add the bonus amount for your employee, please follow these steps:

1. Select the employee and enter the Bonus amount.
2. Once done, click on select Preview Payroll.
   
   
   
   
3. If you are ready, you can choose either Submit payroll or Save for Later.

For detailed guidance on how to effectively provide your employees with bonuses through a separate check, please refer to the article here. You can skip to Step 3: Payout the bonus: Pay employee bonuses.

Also, other option is you can create unscheduled payroll by selecting an alternative pay date from your employee's regular paycheck schedule. From there, you can add hours and include PTO hours. I will provide you steps and screenshot for better visualization.

1. Go to Payroll menu, select Employees.
2. Click Run Payroll, choose the employee's pay schedule.
3. Select your desired Pay date.
   
   
   
   
4. Once done, click Preview Payroll.
5. Choose Submit Payroll or Save for Later when ready.
   
   

Please know that either of these options will still calculate your employee's taxes based on their regular paycheck.

Additionally, I've included this article as a valuable resource for future reference that explains how to generate a printed copy of your paychecks if needed: Print or reprint paychecks and pay stubs.
