I can't find a way to enter hours AND a lump sum payment amount. Seems like it's only one or the other.

Hey there, virginiao.

 

Thanks for turning to the QuickBooks Community for support. I'd be happy to help!

 

QuickBooks Online provides the option to create additional pay types when you need to. Here's how: 

 

1. From the left menu, open "Payroll" and select "Employees"
2. Select the employee's name
3. Locate the box that says "Pay Types", then hit "Edit"
4. Scroll down until you see "Common pay types" 
5. Here you'll see the option to choose the pay type you'd like such as, Commission, Allowance, Other earnings etc. Check the box beside the one that best fits your business needs, then enter an amount.

Once you're ready to run payroll, you'll see the option to add the "Lump sum" in the box that you chose in addition to the regular hours. I hope this helps!

 

If you have any other questions, feel free to reach back out.
