Process all employees paid

Mark this option if you want to process pay for a group of employees. You'll then select the pay frequency of the payroll transactions you want to create. When you select a frequency, payroll transactions will be prepared for those employees who have been assigned that frequency. (The Pay Frequency for an employee is selected using the Card Information window - Payroll Details view - Wages.)

In addition to the four pay frequencies in the drop-down list, there is another entry named Bonus/Commission. Make this selection to make a bonus/commission to an employee or a group of employees, regardless of their pay frequency. (Paying bonus/commission wages)

The list of employees with the specific pay frequency -- or those being receiving bonus/commission -- will display in step 2: Select & Edit Paychecks.
