The HR in charge will receive notifications to preview Payroll 5 days before the actual pay date to check and confirm, before closing payroll.
You need to then open Payroll Preview, and go over payroll data by clicking on an employee's name. Double-check the total working hours, time off, and compensations. Be advised that you will need to manually calculate the overtime according to your company's rate.
A NEED SETUP label will appear next to the employees that have not been set up with payroll.
If you have selected Use time attendance in the Payroll setting, the number of working hours will be reflected in the Attendance section.
At the Total compensation table, there are main modules related to Payroll preparation (Time-off, Attendance). Click on the navigating arrow symbol next to any of the headings to navigate to that section's details. Any changes made on the system will be shown in orange, hover your mouse pointer over the orange part to see the notes.
Once everything is correct, the next step is to export it to a file and hand over to the Payroll Accountant.
The most important and final step is to close payroll. This will make sure that no changes can be made later.
đ IMPORTANT NOTE: Make sure to review Payroll carefully before closing as you will not be able to reopen and make changes later. When Closing Payroll, any changes made after will only be reflected on the next cycleâs payroll review.
