Staff paid hourly and work different hours each week, how do we calculate and record in quickbooks payroll

Hi there, @catheryn65.

I'll help enter and pay your employee in QuickBooks Online Payroll.

Employees who are working different hours weekly are assigned to payroll with an irregular working schedule. This way, you are free to enter hours worked every week with an hourly pay rate and the payroll system will calculate it for you.

Now to set these things up, start by giving a complete name to the employee setup, choosing Hourly as the pay type, and making sure to put a checkmark on the Yes, their schedule is irregular selection menu.

For payroll processing, creating a pay run is deferent based on the payroll account you've subscribed to. Therefore, I'm adding these articles to learn more about creating a pay run:

• QuickBooks Online Standard Payroll Hub
• QuickBooks Online Advanced Payroll Hub

After successfully creating your employee's payroll, consider logging in to your account using any of our supported browser versions and use this reference for guidance for all the features and functions of your payroll account in QuickBooks: Help Articles in QuickBooks Online Payroll. Also, you're able to read subtopics that will describe how a feature is used and how to accomplish tasks related to its functions.

I've got you covered if you have other questions aside from working with your payroll account and employee profile in QuickBooks. Use the Reply option below to leave a comment and don't forget to include my name, @JonpriL. Take care always!
