Work entries & pay runs

Payroll turns what people worked into payslips and groups them into a run. This page walks the cycle from work entries to reports.

Work entries

A work entry is a record of time for a period: worked days, overtime, and approved leave. Worked days come from the contract's schedule. Overtime is added on top. Approved leave flows in from Time Off, so days off land on the payslip without re-entry.

Review the work entries for the period before you generate pay. Fix any gaps now, while they are easy to change.

Generate payslips and a pay run

Once work entries are right, produce the pay:

  1. Choose the period you are paying for.
  2. Generate payslips for the employees in that period.
  3. Group the payslips into a pay run so you handle them as one batch.
  4. Check the totals, then confirm the run.

The salary structure on each contract decides the lines on every slip.

Reports and localization

Payroll reports summarize what was paid across the run, by employee and by line. Use them to check totals and to feed your records.

Payroll rules vary by country. Set up the localization you need so calculations, taxes, and report formats match your jurisdiction.
