How do I record an HRA reimbursement in Poppins Payroll?

You can create a reoccurring reimbursement or a one-time reimbursement. Reimbursements do not count as taxable wages.

Reimbursement Example: If you have a $300 monthly reimbursement, the math for the below payroll frequencies is as follows:

  • Weekly - $300*12/52= Enter $69.23 (rounded) as the reimbursement.
  • Bi-Weekly - $300*12/26= Enter $138.46 (rounded) as the reimbursement.
  • Semi-Monthly - $300*12/24= Enter $150 as the reimbursement.
  • Monthly - $300*12/12= Enter $300 as the reimbursement.
