If you have an hourly employee that works on Time & Billing projects, you can pay the employee based on recorded time-ticket hours. Once an employee records hours worked on a daily time ticket or weekly time sheet, those hours can be totaled and included in the employee's paycheck.

Note: Salary employees cannot be paid based on time-ticket hours. However, you can still enter and maintain time tickets for salaried employees for billing purposes.

From the Maintain menu, select Maintain Employees/Sales Reps. Sage 50 displays the Maintain Employees Sales Reps window.
Select the Pay Info tab.
Enter or select the employee ID. To display a list of existing employees, type ? in this field, or select the Lookup button.
Select Hourly-Time Ticket Hours from the Pay Method list.
If you intend to bill your customers for hours worked by this employee (those recorded on time tickets), enter an hourly billing rate for this employee.
Verify or enter appropriate pay rates for each hourly pay level.
These are the pay rates to be used during payroll entry.
Note: Defined pay levels must contain an established pay rate to be available when you enter employee time tickets. If a pay level contains an undefined rate and that pay level is selected for a time ticket, the time ticket will not be available to use in Payroll.
When you are finished, click Save.
During payroll entry, you can optionally add or modify hours worked if the employee worked additional hours (non-time-ticket hours) during the payroll period.
