Processing a Payroll



Once the employees have been set up, you need to do the following steps to process a payroll: 
1. Verify that all standard earnings and deduction records have been entered.
2. Payroll >> Enter Time/Key Records >> Add Recurring (Please note: instructions in this Help File may also refer to Recurring as "Standard" Earnings).
3. Enter time using Payroll >> Enter Time/Key Records >> Quick Time or >> Edit Time Cards. Quick Time can only be used if wage classes have been setup and assigned to each employee. Deductions can only be entered using the Edit Time Cards.
4. Print Payroll >> View/Print Reports >> Select Reports >> Time Card Hours and verify the total hours entered is correct.
5. Payroll >> Process Payroll >> Calculate Print Paychecks.
6. Using the reports available from the P/R Check Control form, verify the accuracy of the payroll. 
7. If there are any errors, choose Cancel. Then repeat step #3 above and make the necessary changes. Then run Payroll >> Process Payroll >> Calculate Print Paychecks again. Continue to do this until everything is correct.
8. Once everything is correct, print the paychecks.
9. Once the payroll is complete, a check register and general ledger distribution can be printed from General Ledger >> View/Print Reports >> Select Reports >> Audit List.
10. If there are direct deposit checks, Payroll >> Process Payroll >> Transmit Direct Deposit.
