Processing Leave without Pay for a salaried employee

Legacy KB ID: 4720

Question

How can I process leave without pay for my salaried employee in QuickBooks?  QuickBooks keeps assigning an amount when I need to record 0.00.

Answer

The Leave items in QuickBooks will split the weekly salary amount between the salary and leave items, then apportion the amount of pay according to the hours allocated to each item.  The total salary will add up to the usual salary for that period.

The method does not allow for the proper handling of Leave Without Pay (LWOP) for salaried employees as, when a LWOP item is added, a dollar amount will always be assigned to the LWOP.  A deduction item must be entered to remove the amount of pay assigned to the LWOP item.
