Allocate an Employee's Payroll to Multiple Departments

To allocate payroll account amounts to multiple departments for an employee's paycheque:

Open the Paycheques window.
How?
1. In the Home window, click Employees & Payroll on the navigation pane.
2. In the Tasks pane, right-click the Paycheques icon and select Create Paycheque from the menu.
From the Employee list, select an employee and press the Tab key to load their payroll information.
On the Paycheque menu, choose Allocate to Departments.
In the Department column, double-click the line of the account you want to allocate to multiple departments.
In the % column, enter the allocation percentage on the line of the account(s) you want to modify.

If you want to apply the same allocation to all of the accounts, select the Apply This Allocation To All Accounts By Percentage box.

Click OK.
Click OK to close the Accounts and Departmental Allocations window.

Note: To allocate amounts in the payroll cheque run window, select an employee from the list and follow steps 3-7. However, in step 3, instead of the Paycheque menu, click the Payroll menu.
