Hourly/Annual Rate field.
On the paycheck, click the Expenses tab and enter the $20 in the Hourly Rate field then enter the
number of hours they worked.
From the Payroll Item List, set up a Compensation type item with a name that includes the
Employee's initials (or name). Then enter the amount they earn in the Hourly/Annual Rate field.
When entering their hours worked on the Time Sheet enter $20 in the Hourly Rate field and then
