"Unable to add jobs because the total allocated is more than the pay item amount."

Hi anapetrescu 

Welcome to the Community Forum.

The message will typically display when there are multiple jobs selected and has not been allocated completely. This Help Article goes through the steps to make sure each job has an amount allocated: Allocating jobs in payroll.

Hope that helps and if you have any further questions do let me know.
