How to Add/Modify Pay Period Calendars and Special Pay Runs
This menu option is used to define Pay Period Calendars for an Employee Group for a pay year and identify Special Pay Runs (for paying advances and refunds and also handling deductions).
The Pay Period Calendar tab page is used to define pay periods for each Employee Group. Pay periods must be entered consecutively and a pay period cannot be deleted after one or more pay periods have been processed in that calendar year.
The Special Pay Runs tab page is used to define Special Pay runs for pay advances, refunds and/or deductions established through the accumulators. These pay runs are assigned a Run Type of ‘ADDITIONAL’ or ‘ADVANCE’. Special Pay Runs can be processed at any time; however the pay date cannot precede the cheque date of the last processed regular pay period.
