Generate Pay Periods


Time Sheets -> Time Sheet Utilities -> Generate Pay Periods

This program generates the Pay Periods for the Payroll Year.
The Pay Period codes are assigned sequentially, i.e. 52 pays in the year generates 52 Pay Period Codes.

If your firm has employees that are paid for differing lengths of pay periods, enter the highest number of pays in the year.
Then use Review Pay Period Ending Dates to enter any missing records, identifying the number of pays by flagging the appropriate category.

The prompts are:

YEAR
Accept the current year to generate the Pay Period codes for this year, or over-type it with the desired year.

A warning is generated if pay periods have already been generated for this year.
If the process is continued, the pay periods will be re-written.


NUMBER OF PAYS IN THE YEAR
Enter the total number of pays in the year. Typical entries are:
                52 (weekly)           26 (bi-weekly)
                24 (semi-monthly)     12 (monthly)

FIRST PAY PERIOD ENDING DATE
Enter the date of the last working day in the first pay period.
This does NOT have to be the same as the check date, if the pay checks are issued after the period ends.

GENERATE
Type Y (YES) to generate the Pay Periods for the current year.
Type N (NO) to cancel the generation.
