Step 2. Approve Your Payroll Calendar (Mandatory)...Continued

What do I do once I get there?

1. Review the calendar that has been set up for you to ensure the information is correct. Take a good look at the Pay Period Numbers, Pay Period Ending Dates, and Payment Dates - especially the dates for Pay Period Numbers that fall around a statutory holiday. Are they exactly as you want them to be?

2a. If they are, scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click the Approve button.

2b. If the calendar requires changes, do NOT click the Approve button. Click the Calendar Rules link instead.

Note: This example is for a Bi-Weekly payroll frequency. The Weekly and the Bi-Weekly payroll frequencies have the same Calendar - New Rules format.
The Semi-Monthly payroll frequency and the Monthly payroll frequency each have their own Calendar - New Rules format.

3. The Calendar Rules link allows you to make changes to the Calendar schedule. Here you will have the ability to manipulate the required data that Powerpay requires to compose an accurate calendar. Here are the areas that may be changed in the New Rules section:

• In the Effective Pay Period Information area, enter an Effective Payment Date.
• In the Payment Date area, make the appropriate selection(s) that apply to your payroll.
• In the Pay Period Ending Date area, make the appropriate selection(s) that apply to your payroll.
• If a change is required to the Processing Date area, contact your Customer Care Team as they are responsible for making changes to this section. (Note: As the Processing Date could have implications with the timeliness of direct deposits into your employees’ accounts, the representative will review this situation with you and make the required selection.)

4. Click Save.

5. Return to the View Calendar screen and review your revised calendar.

6. Click the Approve button if the calendar information meets your requirements.
