The PTO bank accrues the hours correctly; however, I am trying to configure the system to also accrue the amounts and create the corresponding entry in Journal Transactions. Does anybody have a suggestion on how to do this?

How do you set up payroll to accrue vacation pay $$ not just hrs?

with that said, if employees wanted to get paid the amount accrued upon request, you could create a separate paycheck using the “Special” type. this will allow you to select the same pay period as the original pay period. after the summary section is filled in, fill in the earnings tab using the PTO code and specify the hours the employee should be paid. this should calculate the amount instead of using the hours.
i know this isn’t exactly what you asked for but this is a possible workaround!

Hello,
We have a liability to the employees for the amount of the vacation pay, so am employee can be paid the amount accrued upon request, or when they leave; therefore, it should be recorded in our GL.
The other payroll systems I’ve worked with track this accrual. Do you know if Acumatica does too?
