Payroll Calendar: Payroll Setup / Maintenance

The payroll calendar lists all your regularly scheduled pay periods for the calendar year. It shows you the Year, Pay Period Number, Pay Period Ending Date, Payment Date, Submit for Processing by... date, and whether or not the pay has been processed for each pay period.

A part of the implementation process, a payroll calendar has been created for you by your Service Delivery Team. When you log on to Powerpay for the first time, you must approve the calendar before you can begin to prepare a payroll. Each year, usually in October, you are prompted to approve your calendar for the upcoming year.
