Creating an Expense
Vendors can create expenses for workers to correct potential bill rate issues, hour discrepancies, bonuses, or true expenses reimbursing the worker for goods or services the worker purchased directly.
Watch the video tutorial here:
Step-by-step instructions:
- To create an expense, choose the Time & Expenses page from the left menu.
- Click Add Expense at the top right-hand corner of the page.
- Select the worker from the dropdown for whom you'd like to add an expense.
*Note: For ended workers, expenses can only be added within 30 days of their end date. If an expense needs to be added beyond this timeframe, please submit the period start and end dates, expense date, cost, and a description of the expense to support@simplevms.com. - Adjust the period start and end dates for the expense based on the work week when the expense occurred. Click Add Item, and enter the expense date, cost, and a description of the expense.
If the taxable compensation box is checked, this item is considered compensation-related, and tax should be applied. If this expense is considered a 'pass through' expense, such as reimbursement for items already taxed, uncheck this box when creating your expense.
*Note: Selecting an expense template from the dropdown will automatically populate the applicable fields. - If you need to edit an expense item, click the pencil icon or the trash can icon to delete the expense item.
- Once finished, click Add Expense at the bottom of the page.
