"How do I check payslips before paying payroll on payday?"

If your team's payslips frequently include timesheets and expenses, on payday, you may want to check each payslip before you tap: File now

To open a payslip and check its hours worked:

  1. First, select the pay batch on: MenuPay batches
  2. Then tap: PayPay now
  3. Next, hover your mouse over the row of the first payslip you want to check.
  4. And tap the blue "See payslip" button: (at the start of any row)
  5. Once their payslip slides out on the right, you can now begin checking.
  6. The first thing to check is the big number (at the top).
  7. Which is their "Net pay", or, in other words, how much is paid to their bank account.
  8. Make sure that it "feels" like the number you're expecting to pay.
  9. Then if the person does timesheets, tap Hours worked, and a list of their timesheet times slides out on the right.
  10. If you need to change one of the day's times done, tap it to make changes.
  11. Now, tap the shift on that day that you want to change, drag the slider to make your change, and tap: Save
  12. Once it's reloaded, you'll see that the payslip's "Earnings" number has changed.
  13. And finally, when you hover your mouse over the "Earnings" number, the hours to be paid has also changed.

To open a payslip and check for any repeat payables to be removed, like a benefit-in-kind:

  1. First, select the pay batch on: MenuPay batches
  2. Then tap: PayPay now
  3. Next, hover your mouse over the row of the payslip you want to open.
  4. And tap the blue "See payslip" button: (at the start of any row)
  5. Next, on the payslip, find the repeat payable that you'd like to remove.
  6. One-time removal:
    To remove a repeat payable from only a single payslip, but have it still show up on all future payslips, untick the repeat payable.
  7. Once you've unticked the repeat payable, it's removed from the current payslip as a one-time removal.
  8. However, it still shows up in all future payslips, as expected.
  9. Permanent removal:
    To permanently remove a repeat payable, tap the light blue "Edit" button: (at the front of the repeat payable)
  10. Then scroll down to "People getting it", and tap the person you'd like removed.
  11. Then in the person's pay settings, tap the blue "remove" link, and then tap: Yes ... remove
  12. Now that the repeat payable's reloaded, you can see that it no longer has the person listed.
  13. Then back on the payslip, tap the three dots: (in the top-right corner), and tap: Reload
  14. Now, on the reloaded payslip, the repeat payable's money value is set to nothing.
  15. The reason the row's still showing is because it's been filed on previous payslips in the tax year.
  16. Because it's been previously filed, the "year to date" amount still needs to be listed.
  17. And finally, once you get to the next tax year, the "year to date" amount gets reset, and the repeat payable row permanently disappears.

For advanced usage:

  • If you're paying lots of people, you may want to plan your payday payslip checking job out in advance.
  • You could share your "checking" job with others on your payroll team.
  • Checking payslips can be done by multiple people, all during the same time.
  • All it takes is to set up each person in your payroll team with their own login.
  • And then give each of them payroll admin permissions.

And that's it! That's everything you need to know about checking payslips!
