Processing a payroll early

You can always process your payroll ahead of your scheduled payroll input day. Here is what to expect.

Delivery

Delivery will happen per normal timelines from the day you submit. Packages cannot be held for pick up and delivery cannot be delayed. If no one will be at your location to accept the package, contact your Customer Support Team, prior to submitting your payroll, to provide an alternate delivery address.

One-time overrides are not available for Indicia customers.

Funding

Payment is due on the usual day; no advance payment is required for an earlier processing date.

If you pay by Bill Payment you can pay early or you can send payment on the same day as usual.

Service Fees

There is no additional charge for processing early.

Payroll Distribution

If cheques are issued, we strongly advise against handing them out early. Employees may attempt to cash the cheque earlier than it is dated, causing the item to be returned.

Multiple Runs

If you are scheduled to be away for an extended period, you can submit a current and future run on the same day. Only one payroll can be processed at a time and you must wait a minimum of three hours before submitting another run.

Payroll submissions received before 8:00 pm EST (5pm PST, 6pm MST, 7pm CST) on business days will be processed “same day”. Payroll reports can be viewed in Powerpay within 3-4 hours of submission.
