Class showing on emailed/printed payslip

Malcolm Robertson

Reckon Accounts Plus 2016. I have casual employees working on many short term jobs I track using classes. When paying them I allocate the relevant classes to the earnings items, but there does not appear to be a way to add these classes to the actual customised payslip I email. This would be very useful so their payslip would show them separate rows for each job they are being paid for, just as it is when I create the payments in payroll.

Would you need to add separate payroll items for each class ? This way it will give you a different line on the payslip for each.

You are correct Sheree.  Reckon tends to amalgamate items when it prints the pay slip, if the item and the rate are the same.  I also find this to be a bit annoying at times, although it is not often that I experience the problem.  The trick therefore is to have a pay item with a slightly different name for each particular class that you are dealing with.  John L G

Thanks both. Yes John it's precisely this amalgamation that is the problem for me. I just want the separate information I input when I create the pay to stay separate when I report the pay via the payslip to my employees. If I can't simply show that on the payslip then yes I'll have to create as many payroll items as I have events, which is approximately 50 per year and not really how payroll items are supposed to be used
