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 to pay all employees or an individual employee, if you wish, for a particular pay frequency.
- Select the pay frequency you want to pay. (Each pay frequency [weekly, monthly, etc.] requires a separate payroll run)
- Select the pay period you want to pay.
- Select the date of the payment.
- If you use timesheets, select the timesheets hours to include in the paychecks. (Using Timesheets)
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)
Deselect timesheets
If you use timesheets to pay your employees, you'll review the list of timesheets that appear in the list. (Using Timesheets)
Note: If you receive the alert message: No Timesheets can be found using the criteria chosen
