About Payroll Calendars

The Payment Date field in Payroll > Application Data > Payroll Calendars includes the following settings:

  • Same as Pay Date

  • Friday before, if Pay Date is Sat/Sun

  • Monday after, if Pay Date is Sat/Sun

The field defaults to Same as Pay Date. Pay Date and Payment Date are used differently.

Pay Date Displays the Pay Date for your employee and is used for the Full Payment Submission. If the pay date falls on a 'non-banking day' this displays as the employee's regular payday.
Payment Date Displays the employees actual payment date when this falls on a non-banking day.

To change the setting in the Payment Date:

  1. Go to Payroll > Application Data > Payroll Calendars.

  2. Select Update Calendar.

  3. Amend the rule in the Payment date field by selecting the rule you want to apply.

  4. Select Preview Calendar and, if you're happy with it, select Save.
