Enter hours for salaried exempt full-time workers
If an employee, such as a manager, works at multiple locations (including locations under different EINs), their full annual salary must be entered at each job and location.
The system will calculate pay based on actual hours worked at each location.
Important: For each job and location, make sure to specify the employee’s full annual salary as their earning rate. For example, if a manager earns $50,000 per year and oversees four locations, enter $50,000 as the earning rate at each job and location.
Run payroll and enter hours worked: When processing payroll, enter only the hours worked at each location.
As a best practice, enter standard hours based on the pay frequency for salaried earnings:
Weekly: 40
Bi-weekly: 80
Semimonthly 86.67
Monthly 173.33
Quarterly: 520
Annually: 2080
You don’t need to enter PTO or sick leave hours in payroll because they’re already part of the standard hours
