I can’t change the Vacation Paid amount

Solution 1: Linked account issue

1. If the Vacation Paid amount is greyed out and is at zero, go to Setup, Settings, Payroll, Linked Accounts, Incomes.
2. Ensure that Vac. Owed is linked to the account used to keep track of the transactions associated with it.

Solution 2: Retained vacation issue

1. If the Vacation Paid amount is greyed out, but has an amount, go to the Employee record.
2. Click the Income tab and place a checkmark for Retain Vacation.
3. Click Save and Close.
   • Note: If Retain Vacation is unchecked, the employee will be getting paid any vacation owed to them on each paycheque; thus it will prevent you from adjusting the value for it.

Solution 3: Vacation earned not calculating issue

1. If the Vacation Earned and Vacation Paid amount is at zero, go to Setup, Settings, Payroll, Incomes.
2. Ensure that Calc. Vac.  column is checked for the Regular, Overtime, Salary income types or any other income types used in payroll.
