How to Add a Pay Schedule to a Pay Period

A pay schedule determines how often your employees get paid. Common options include:

• Weekly: Every week
• Bi-weekly: Every two weeks
• Semi-monthly: Twice a month (usually on the 1st and 15th)
• Monthly: Once a month
• Custom Pay Schedules

You can either use a pre-set option or create a custom schedule.

Follow these steps to effectively set up pay schedules that align with your company's needs and ensure accurate and timely payroll processing.

Using a Pre-set Option

1. Navigate to Global Settings > HR Data Management > Pay Schedule.
   
2. Select a desired Pay Schedule frequency. The system will automatically configure the pay period and pay dates based on your choice.
