How to Add Pay Periods to an Existing Pay Group

Pay periods can be added to an existing pay group up until the end date of the most-recent tax period that exists in Payroll > Maintenance > Tax Period. Therefore, before you attempt to add pay periods to an existing pay group, ensure that the most-recent tax period data has been imported into the system.

To add pay periods to an existing pay group, follow the procedure below.

1.

If the relevant pay group record is not already open in the Pay Group Entry screen, search for and open the relevant record.

2.

On the Pay Group Entry screen, click Rollover.

The system creates new pay periods for the pay group from the end date of the last existing pay period up until the end date of the latest tax period loaded in the system.

3.

Click Save.

The pay group record is saved.
