How to Track COVID-19 Paid Leave in Microsoft Dynamics GP

UPDATED 4/9 TO REFERENCE SOCIAL SECURITY CREDITS IN THE VIDEO INSTEAD OF MEDICARE.

With a change in the business landscape, you can expect changes to your systems. Thanks to the Families First Coronavirus Response Act, provisions have been made to accommodate a paid leave of absence. Now, people who either have COVID-19 or are caring for someone with the illness have protections for paid sick leave. This is creating new challenges for your accounting department on how to track and report this leave. Luckily our demo expert David Valade has been working around the clock getting together the pertinent information and making tutorial videos! Below you can see how to track COVID-19 paid leave in Dynamics GP.

First, we would like to give a shout-out to Terry Heley at Microsoft for the blog that inspired this video. Also, if you get a chance, go check out the Microsoft Dynamics GP Support & Service Blog, where great information can be found. They do some amazing work.

The video below is what we believe to be the easiest way to set up COVID-19 paid leave tracking inside Dynamics GP.
