Payroll Question

[sardcc]

I have broken down an employee's wages into 3 categories: 1) Wages 2) Vacation 3) Sick Time. I do this to keep track of each one separately. How do I get all 3 of these categories to print on the Check Stub each week with current and YTD totals. For the minsiters, we also include a Housing and Insurance amount once a month. These are not appearing on the check stub either. Am I missing something in the payroll module? I am not currently printing checks from the system, I am only running PC v9 parallel with our current system, until I get comfortable. I will be so glad when I can eliminate the double-entry. Thanks in advance for you help!

You need to set up pay items for each of these categories in the Payroll Module using the Maintain Item Descriptions screen. Then, attach these items to the employees paychecks using the Maintain Employee Pay Items screen. If you were using PC+ to print your payroll checks the current and YTD totals would automatically show up on the check stub. Since you are writing manual checks what you could do is "print" computer checks using blank sheets of paper when you go to post payroll to see the current and YTD totals.

Thanks for the info. I have all the items setup. However, I did not realize that I would have to keep each item attached to each employee, even if they contain zeros. I have printed the checks out on blank paper to see the pay stub. I will print out next weeks on blank paper to make sure it is all setup correctly. Thanks for the quick response.
