Thanks for reaching out to the Community about this, kimberlyimint.
 

If you're using our Payroll services, you can create a non-taxable reimbursement item for things such as travel, mileage, or non-taxable insurance reimbursements.
 

Here's how:

  1. In your top menu bar, go to Lists, then Payroll Item List.
  2. Click Payroll Item, then choose New.
  3. Hit the Custom Setup button.
  4. Press Next.
  5. Pick an Addition type and click Next.
  6. Choose an expense account to track travel or mileage amounts. If it's an advance to your employee, you'll want to pick an asset account.
  7. Set the Tax Tracking type to None so that the amounts don't report on tax forms.
  8. For amounts paid per mile/kilometer, tick your Based on Quantity checkbox.
  9. Choose to calculate on net pay.
  10. Enter a Default Rate, then select Finish.


Now you'll be prepared to add the item to your employee's record.
 

I'll be here to help if there's any additional questions. Have a wonderful day!
