    Hi BB937,

     

    Thanks for your post.

     

    In regards to the salaried staff working overtime, you would be correct in setting up a unique payroll category for those employees and manually entering the hours/amounts. You also want to ensure you have your entitlements exempt from that category to ensure leave is not accrued. 

     

    With the salaried staff working additional hours, either way would be possible, however, it would be easier and less time-consuming within the software if you were to keep them on an Hourly pay basis. due to the multiple adjustments you'd need to make every pay run if they were salary. 

     

    If you need any further assistance with this, please do reach out.
