How do I temporarily halt a person's pay?

"How do I temporarily halt a person's pay?"

Sometimes, you may have a reason to temporarily halt a person's pay.

To turn on "Temporarily halt pay" for a person, and to see how it looks when paying payslips:

  1. First, select the person on: MenuPeople
  2. Then tap: SettingsPermissions
  3. And turn on: Temporarily halt pay
  4. Then tap: Save
  5. Now that you've halted their pay, to see how it looks, select the pay batch on: MenuPay batches
  6. Then go to: PayPay now
  7. You'll now see that the payslip row for the halted person is greyed out.
  8. You can still pay everyone else, but not the halted person.
  9. To remove the "Temporarily halt pay" restriction, tap the orange warning and turn it off.
  10. And finally, once you've turned it off, the orange warning goes away, and you can now include their payslip in: "Pay now"

Keep in mind that:

  • Temporarily halting a person's pay can be useful if you're investigating a person's behaviour for serious misconduct, like fraud.
  • Temporarily halting a person's pay doesn't block them in any other way. The person can still login, do timesheets, and everything else.
  • Also keep in mind, that it may be illegal to not pay a person by the date their pay is due.
  • You'll need to do your own research to decide whether it's legal for you to not pay a person by the date their pay is due.

And that's it! That's everything you need to know about temporarily halting a person's pay!
