How to setup salary employees so we can capture all hours for billing purpose but report only equal or below 40 hours for Job cost?

Question

Hello Sage City bloggers, 
 How can we setup salary employees so we can capture all hours for billing purpose but report only equal to or below 40 hours to process payroll and for JC? 
 Our Project Managers are all salary employees but several work well over the regular 40 hours every week, we bill our clients by the hour with a hourly billable rate. 
 We capture all the hours with hh2 but when we import the file we have to manually separate all hours over 40 so payroll and JC don't get messed up. 
 I would appreciate any help, input. 
 
 Thank you.

If you only want to track the hours in job cost/payroll without adjusting the cost,we use a simple solution. Each pay period, once our salaried payroll has been processed in payroll, but not posted, we go into "change unposted time entries", and change the number of hours worked each day form the standard 8 to the actual hours worked. This keeps track of total hours, both in payroll and job cost, without changing the salary earned or costs. Don't know how many Project Managers you have, which would affect the amount of time and effort needed to do this, but we do run our salaried individuals in a separate payroll group as the first step of preparing our weekly payroll. Once we have processed those, we immediately make the change to the unposted hours on this group and reprocess, before beginning our entry of regular or non-salary wages. At the end of the payroll preparation, we reprocess once more, and then post. All costs and hours then are posted through accurately.
