Welcome to the Community, @accounts-resmipl.

 

I'll help you add sales commission to your employee payroll. Before doing so, you need to set up a pay category first. Then, you can use it when running payroll.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Employees tab and then select Payroll Settings.
  2. Choose Pay Categories.
  3. Select Add and name the category, e.g., Commission, then Save.
  4. Navigate to the Payment classification dropdown menu and choose the relevant payment classification.
  5. Enter in the category setup as required, then select Save.

 

To pay an employee commission without combining the tax over multiple pay periods, you can easily do so by utilizing the Add Earnings feature in the employee's record within the pay run. Just click on the Actions button and select the appropriate pay category to make the payment.

 

For more detailed information, you can check out this article: Create and manage Pay Categories

 

Lastly, here is an article you can read for future reference: How to Add Leave Categories in QuickBooks Payroll. It will guide you in adding leave categories in QuickBooks Online.

 

Let me know if you have questions about adding a commission to employee payroll. I'm always here to help. Have a great day.
