Create Payable Types

This article is for administrators and managers who configure employee time tracking in WorkEasy Software. You will learn how to create payable types, assign them to employee timesheets, and ensure payables calculate correctly in payroll.

Payable types, or payables, are classifications used to record specific types of wages or expenses employees may incur during work hours. Examples include tips, mileage, gas, or other miscellaneous payments.

Important: For payables to work correctly, you must also select Manual Expenses/Tips entry under Employee Reporting Method when configuring reporting hours.
