Step 8. Enter hours and earnings to be paid (Mandatory)

Two Methods of Entering Payments

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

1. If you have completed the Rapid Entry Setup for the type of payroll you are entering (Regular or Extra), you can enter your employees' hours, earnings, deductions, and/or contributions on screens set up specially for easy data entry, called Rapid Entry pages. This is a good choice for most payments.
   
2. If you haven't yet set up the Rapid Entry screen, or want to enter only one employee's payments, or have to enter an exception(s) to a particular employee's payments - use the Detailed Employee Timesheet for that employee.
   Since it's most likely that you'll be using both methods on a regular basis (Rapid Entry for most payments and Detailed Timesheets for exceptions), instructions follow for both methods
