How should i add a credit to an employee for cell phone use on paystub?

Good day to you, Erika. I'll walk you through adding a payroll item so you can quickly credit an employee's cell phone use.

We can add a reimbursement item on your employee's profile to include this via paycheck. Please note that if you only need to add a credit once, you'll need to uncheck it the next time you compensate them manually. Let me guide you on how:

1. Go to the Payroll menu and select Employees (Take me there).
2. Select your employee.
3. From their profile, scroll down to Pay types, then Additional pay types, and tick the Reimbursement checkbox.
4. Select + Another Reimbursement if there's an existing reimbursement pay type.
5. Add the default amount or leave it blank, and enter it as you run payroll.
6. Once finished, tap Save.
   

Once done, you'll need to map the accounting preference of the reimbursement pay type in Step 2 and proceed with Step 3 to include the item in the payroll run. See this article for more details: Reimburse your employee in QuickBooks Payroll.

I've also added this article to help you identify what specific report you will use to keep track of your books about payroll: Run payroll reports.
