Payroll deductions as a percentage of gross wages

Hi Bigred2,

 

Yes, you can set up a deduction for the employee, but there isn’t a built-in option to calculate it as a percentage of gross wages. In the setup, deductions are entered as a default amount per pay instead. You can set this up by going to Payroll > Employees > select the employee > Standard pay > Add deductions. If the deduction amount changes from pay to pay, you can leave the default amount as 0.00 and enter the amount manually during the pay run instead. You can also set a custom amount for that specific employee in their Standard pay tab.

 

For more info, you can also check this help article: Setting up pay items / payroll categories.
