Entering Time for a Payroll Item

Time tracking lets you track the hours you and other employees work. If you are in the U.S. and you have the appropriate privileges, you can track time for employee payroll items like hourly wages.

Warning:

NetSuite CRM+ users can't record time for payroll items.

If you track time for employee payroll items and want these hours to be included in the payroll period, you must enable this feature on the appropriate employee records.

Note:

If an employee enters PTO after payroll cut-off date, the PTO is processed and recorded in the following regular payroll.
