Employees and payroll

Hello there, BethBaldwin

 

I have the steps for setting up and adding overtime pay for employees in QuickBooks Online.

 

If you need to pay an employee for extra hours worked, you can create an overtime pay item.

 

  1. Go to Payroll, then Employees.
  2. Choose your employee.
  3. From Pay types, click Start or Edit.
  4. In the Common pay types section, select Overtime Pay. (If applicable, select Double Overtime Pay.)
  5. Select Save.

 

To learn more about the setup and the federal and state overtime requirements, I've included the following article: Add overtime pay to an employee.

 

After you set up the overtime pay item, you can follow the steps in this link to process payroll: Create and run your payroll.

 

Return to this thread if you have any further payroll-related questions. I'll be around if you need me.
