Employees already have 4% on paycheque for vacation but how do I add the 4% on for holiday pay at the same time?

Hi sjustcar,

 

I can understand the importance of ensuring holiday pay is applied to your employees cheque.  With QuickBooks Online, we automatically turn on the statutory pay type for you.  When you run payroll, you'll have the option to enter the hours unless it's been turned off.  I'd be glad to go over this for you!

 

Here's how you can be sure statutory holiday pay is turned on:

 

1. From Payroll on the left menu, go to Employees and select the employees Name

2. Scroll down to Section #4.  If Stat Holiday Pay is not already added in the Additional pay section, select the edit pencil beside Pay

3. In the Common Pay Types section, check the box beside Stat Holiday Pay 

4. When completed, hit Done.

You'll need to manually calculate what the 4% is and convert that into hours, based on the employees rate before inputting it into the statutory holiday field.
