Pay enquiries can be performed on any closed pay batches. A pay enquiry can be run to view a list of payees who were paid in a pay batch or range of pay batches within a given period. For each payee that is listed, you can view a summary of their pay as it was calculated at each stage of the pay batch process as well as the method by which the payee was paid (BACS or cheque). You can also drill-down to view detailed information about how an individual payee's pay was affected at each stage of the pay batch process in the closed pay batch.

Running a pay enquiry is useful if, for example, a payee has a query about their pay for a given pay period or a potential discrepancy is discovered in a payee's pay after the payee has been paid for the effected pay period.

Once a pay batch is closed it can be listed on the Payroll > Pay Process > Pay Run >  Pay Batch List screen to view summary information about the pay batch such as the pay period and pay group to which the batch belongs, the number of payees paid in the pay batch and the total gross payment amount that was paid as a result of processing the batch. You cannot, however, view the pay details of individual payees who were paid in the closed batch. This can only be done by running a pay enquiry.

How to Run a Pay Enquiry
