Can I enter furlough as a payroll type

Hello, bhconstruction5.

Yes, you can enter furlough as a payroll type in QuickBooks Online and I'd be happy to show you how.

If you're using the QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll, you can follow the steps below to complete the process.

1. Start your pay run, and then click ‘edit’ next to one employee
2. Select ‘Add/edit a Bonus or Other Payment.’
3. Click the Plus icon at the top of the box and select ‘Other Earnings’ as the type
4. Name the item something along the lines of ‘Furloughed Employee Pay.’
5. Enter in the employee’s payment amount for the period
6. Edit all other Furloughed employees on the pay run, and add in the payment category you have created.

You can get more details about this process in this article: COVID-19: Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme.

However, if you're using QuickBooks Online Advanced, you can go through this article: QuickBooks Online Advanced Payroll Hub.

I'm just one click away if you need additional assistance with your payroll or any QuickBooks related. I'll be here to ensure your success.
