Hi miranda12,

 

It's vital you're able to edit/add pay types in QuickBooks so you can continue to pay your staff with maximum flexibility. I'll be happy to give you a hand with this process. 

 

First, I recommend checking to see if you're logged in as an admin user on your account. The reason I suggest this is that some users aren't able to make edits to the account while some can and this based on how you set them up. I encourage you to learn more about user types using this link here. If you have the right user access, I suggest editing your pay types using a private/incognito window to see if that makes a difference. Here are the steps:

  1. Click on Payroll > Employees from the left menu.
  2. Locate the employee you wish to edit.
  3. Hit the edit icon next to Pay.
  4. Select the edit icon next to section #3.
  5. Select the type of pay type you wish to apply from the drop-down menu.
  6. Input the appropriate info.
  7. Hit Done twice.

I encourage you to try this out and if you have questions, don't hesitate to reach back to me in the comments below, I've got your back.
