Which localization (country) are you using?
In US the necessary items are automatically created in the payroll.
Turn on the automatic accrual and supply the amount to be accrued (edit
employee / vacation sick button). When it's time to use on the pay line
add/enter the vacation salary item and put in the number of hours to
use. Couldn't be simpler as long as you remember to enter the regular
(non vacation) hours first. You'll have to figure out if in using
vacation they accrue anything if you are on the per pay period system,
but that is your company policy.
