Set Up/Adjust Employee Balances - Earnings Tab

Access this tab using Activities>Payroll>Set Up/Adjust Employee Balances. It is only available with the Payroll module; it is not available for Payroll Link users.

Use this tab to enter adjustments to earnings for an employee.

 

Earnings Code, Title, Hours, Amount: The Earnings table allows you to set up or adjust an employee's earning codes, hours, and amounts. You can select as many earning codes and related information as is appropriate for the employee and Effective Date. The amount you enter can be positive, negative, or zero.

  • If you implement the Payroll module mid-year, and you want to produce reports for previous quarters that include earnings, enter a separate adjustment for earnings for each quarter using an Effective Date within that quarter. If, however, you are implementing mid-year and you do not need previous quarterly reports that include earnings, you can enter a single adjustment using the implementation date as the Effective Date. Remember that the Effective Date is entered on the Select tab.
  • To view the recalculated totals, click the Select Tab.
  • Use the minus key or the space bar to enter a negative amount.
