How to Make a Negative Payroll Adjustment

1. Select the employee – Go to the employee’s payroll record (e.g., Caitlin).

2. Enter adjustment details –

   • Category: e.g., “Supplies and T-shirts.”

   • Set it for the current pay period.

   • Enter a negative amount (e.g., -$10 for a t-shirt).

   • Leave “Hours” blank.

   • Add a description (e.g., “Bought a t-shirt on 5/31”).

3. Save the adjustment.

4. Review payroll report – The deduction will appear in the payroll report and be applied to the correct pay period (e.g., $10 deducted on 5/31).
