Employee Data: Fringe

Objectives:

Learn about the Fringe tab within AllPay. A Fringe payment is a recurring earning that does not appear on the Employee Pay Entry screen, but it will display during the payroll process when you’re doing a check calculation preview. This is a great way to track car allowances, phone allowances, or if an employer pays a portion of an employee’s medical coverage, just as a few examples. An employer can also pay something on behalf of an employee by setting up an agency. You can set up memo codes that will give you a record of what a Fringe earning, and this won’t impact their taxable income but provides you great data for any end-of-year reporting.
