Process Payroll
Select Employees to Pay
Process Payroll will guide you through creating employee payments in four steps. The information used to create these payments was entered in the Card Information window for each employee. Use this step to:
- Select the pay period you want to pay.
- Select the pay frequency you want to pay. (Each pay frequency [weekly, monthly, etc.] requires a separate payroll run)
- Select an individual employee to pay, if you wish.
- Include activity slips hours in the paychecks.
Select employees to pay
You can record payroll transactions for:
- A group of employees with the same pay frequency: When you process payroll for a group of employees, the payments are based upon the employees' pay frequency. (You enter the Pay Frequency for an employee using the Card Information window - Payroll Details view - Wages.)
If you pay employees weekly, you can create weekly payments for them by completing the four steps of Process Payroll.
If you have other employees who are paid monthly, you'll complete the four-step process again when you're ready to create monthly payments.
- One employee (any pay frequency): If you want to pay only one employee, you can choose the one employee regardless of the employee's pay frequency.
- Bonus/Commission: You can also make a bonus/commission to an employee or a group of employees, regardless of their pay frequency. (Paying bonus/commission wages)
Include activity slips hours
Mark this box if you want to include activity slip hours in your employee payments. You'll select the activity slips you want to include in the employee payments in this step.
If you receive the alert "No Activity Slips Hours can be found using the criteria chosen,' you may not have completed all of the steps required to include activity slip hours in your employee payments. (To include activity slips hours on employee payments)
Note: Activity slips are paid IN ADDITION to Recurring Pay
