Payroll Groups

Payroll Groups can be created to allow for payroll to be run for multiple locations at the same time rather than individually per location. The Payroll Groups page allows Company Administrators to add, remove or edit existing groups.

Click the + Payroll Group button to add a new group. Enter a name, fill in the required fields, and select the Locations to add to the Payroll Group by clicking the + Add Location button.

Only Locations that do not already belong to a Payroll Group can be added. The First Payroll Start Date must be the same day of the week as the First Day of Week defined in the selected Location to be added.

Payroll Frequency defines at what interval the payroll will be run.  Options for this field are Weekly, Bi-Weekly Odd, Bi-Weekly Even, Semi Monthly, and Monthly.

The Payroll Periods Displayed field is used to indicate how many future Payroll Periods will be reflected after each payroll run.

File Output Name is no longer used so can be left blank.

To reassign a location to a different payroll group, click the Reassign button next to the location.  Select a payroll group to transfer the location to and select the Apply button.

After clicking Save, you will then see the location as an outgoing transfer on the old payroll group and an incoming transfer on the new payroll group.  The effective date is shown on the transfer and is calculated automatically by the system.
