Setup steps required to use timesheets for payroll
- Mark the preference. Mark the I Use Timesheets... preference in the System view of the Preferences window.
Select Time Billing and Payroll if you want activity slip hours to appear in the timesheet or just Payroll if you don't.
Select the day of the week you want to begin your timesheet week.
- Select payroll categories. Select the hourly payroll categories you'll use in the Enter Timesheet window and Enter Activity Slip window. Make the payroll category selections in the Payroll Details view - Wages of the employee's Card Information window. You must do this for every employee for whom you want to use timesheets for payroll.
- For hourly employees, the Base Hourly payroll category is preselected. You must mark any other hourly payroll categories you want to use.
- For salaried employees, there are no hourly payroll categories preselected (Base Salary is preselected but it is a salary payroll category, not an hourly category). Unless you mark them here, no hourly payroll categories are available to you for timesheet or activity slip use.
How timesheet use affects hourly employees' pay and salaried employees' pay is very different. See How employee pay is calculated using timesheets to understand these differences.
