Maintain Employees
In Default Information, you indicate the general guidelines for processing 
payroll for the whole company. In Maintain Employees, you give specific 
guidelines for individual employees. 
1
From the Maintain menu, select Employees/Sales Reps.
We’re going to look at two employees—one hourly and one salaried—
and then enter paychecks for each.
2
Select the lookup button beside the Employee ID field.
3
From the list, double-click MWANG-01—Michelle Wang.
4
Select the Pay Info tab.
 Notice the following things about Michelle:
She is an hourly employee.
She is paid every two weeks (bi-weekly) at 80 hours per pay period.
She is being paid $9.00 an hour (regular rate).
5
Select the EmployEE Fields tab.
Notice the similarities between this window and the Default 
Information EmployEE Fields tab. The only difference is the presence of 
the Std column (short for Standard). If Std check box is selected, the 
employee is using the default setup for this payroll found in the 
Employee Defaults window. If the Std check box is clear, then the 
employee is an exception to the defaults.
