Commissions in Payroll

Problem

If using the Write Payroll command for just one Wage Schedule, Goldenseal also includes commission income. This makes it more difficult to split off a paycheck payment for just one type of work.

Caught By

User bug report.

Workaround

You can "turn off" the commissions by doing the following:

  1. Choose Write Payroll from the Bank menu.
  2. Enter a specific Wage Schedule into the Wage Schedule clairvoyant field at the bottom of the window.
  3. Double-click on the Commissions column, for the employee that has commissions.
  4. Turn off the check box in each row of the itemized list of commissions.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Proceed with payroll, without the commissions.

Solution

Starting with Goldenseal payroll software version 4.3, commissions are not included when you use just one Wage Schedule. If you leave the Wage Schedule field blank, they will be included.
