Hi there

I have an employee who has a tool allowance but I am not sure which items to select in the payroll item wizard. Could you assist please? I have asked this question previously but I think the response I had related to Reckon Hosted. I don't have a strong accounts back ground so if this could be broken down into very simple steps it would be greatly appreciated. 😉

    It should show on payment summary and be tax free. Have a look in pay items in the settings as to how other allowances are setup

    Thanks Kris, at this stage it is not showing up like that and I am unsure of how to change the settings in payroll items to alter this. Have you any suggestions please? Many thanks

    Hi Kris

    Thank you so much for your detailed information - so very appreciated. However, we use the desk top edition of Reckon so our options and menu's have a totally different appearance. Warm regards PK

    Hi again Kris - you will get a call from Bob regarding this as I am working from home and don't have the accounts computer with me here. So good to have such great support in this community!
