My landscape architect client uses an employee leasing service for payroll. The need to utilize the job costing function more extensively to track their profitablity. I have found that if I enter employee's time using time ticket hours and adjust the "pay rate" for each employee to the net amount paid per hour by the service, I can generate a "fake" check that not only records the cash outlay to the payroll service but will also record the payroll expense on each job. By doing this I also am able to see the hours spent on each job, which is important to my client.
Because the service pays all taxes, benefits etc., I have no need to calculate any of these numbers and post them to the GL. There are no tables in the company tax table list. Everytime I go to select entries for payroll, I have to close all the tax table flags before I can continue.

Can these be turned off or is there a beter way to do this. I have tried making a journal entry through a "wash" account, but this will not apply hours worked to the job like the payroll module will.

Any assistance would be helpful.

Go into Payroll Default information and on the EE and ER tabs, remove all checkmarks and all calculation names. This turns off tax calculation and only leaves the gross.
