Enter hours and earnings to be paid

There are two different ways you can manually enter hours and earnings through Powerpay:

• Enter employee hours, earnings, deductions and contributions on the Rapid Entry pages that you set up for easy data entry. The Rapid Entry method is a good choice for most payments. See Enter data using the Rapid Entry page.
• To enter a payment for only one employee, or to enter exceptions to a particular employee’s payments, use the Detailed Employee Timesheet – Regular Payment or Detailed Employee Timesheet – Second Payment pages for that employee. See Enter payroll data using the Employee Timesheet page.

You must enter data on either the Rapid Entry page or the Employee Timesheet page (or Employee Timesheet – Second Payment page) in order for your employees to be paid. Typically, Powerpay users use both methods on a regular basis.

Tip: If you plan to use both methods to enter your payroll data, complete the Rapid Entry page information first before moving to the Employee Timesheet. Entries made on the Employee Timesheet cannot be edited on the Rapid Entry pages.

Powerpay can also be configured to import employee information from recognized time and attendance and workforce management systems. Contact your Customer Support Team (click the Contact Us link for more information).
