Set Employee’s default in QuickBooks

2009_0914_01_employeeprofile After you have set up your payroll item; next, we need to set up every employee’s payroll default.

Example:

Employee’s name: John Tan
Monthly Salary: $1,055.00
Transport allowance: $400.00
CPF Employee: 20%
CPF Employer’s contribution: 14.5%

From the employee’s profile, change the tab to ‘Payroll and Compensation Info’.

Under the Earnings:

Item name: select Basic Salary
Hourly / Annual Rate: Enter 12,660 (i.e.: 1055 x 12 = 12,660.00)

Under the Additions, Deductions and Company Contributions:

1st row:

Item name: Transport Allowance
Amount: 400.00

2nd row:

Item name: CPF Employee
Amount: -291.00 ((1055 + 400) * 20%)

3rd row:

Item name: CPF Employer
Amount: 211.00 ((1055 + 400) * 14.5% = 210.975, round to 211.00)

Additional information:

Leave the rest of the information blank.

Once default is being set up, you can proceed to pay your employees.
