Payroll Items screen

Show expandable text

Use the Payroll Items screen to configure and maintain the various pay, deduction, and employer contribution types of payroll items required for each of your clients. (Payroll items are defined on a client-by-client basis rather than on a global level, although payroll items can be transferred to any client from a client template.)

Choose Setup > Payroll Items.

The payroll items set up for a selected client are displayed in the Payroll Items tab of the Employees screen when that client is selected.
