Timesheet Details

This section displays the Processing Group, Timesheet Type, Pay Date, Pay Period Begin Date, Pay Period End Date, Employee ID, SUTA Weeks, and Timesheet Reference (if appropriate), for the selected timesheets.

Processing Group: The processing group for which to enter timesheets. You must have created at least one processing group to enter timesheets. See Processing Groups for more information.

Timesheet Type: The payroll type of Regular (R) or Supplemental (S)

Pay Date: The pay date for this timesheet

  • When creating a Regular Timesheet, the pay date entered must be a valid pay date for the selected processing group. A valid pay date is one that is part of the processing group's pay cycle and has not yet been calculated and printed.

  • Only active and inactive processing groups are available for selection.

Pay Period Begin: If entering a supplemental timesheet, enter the pay period begin date.

  • A default pay period begin date automatically displays for regular type timesheets.

  • Pay Dates were created in the "Pay Schedule" section of the processing group (see Processing Groups).

Pay Period End: If entering a supplemental timesheet, enter the pay period end date.

  • A default pay period end date automatically displays for regular type timesheets.

  • Pay Dates were created in the "Pay Schedule" section of the processing group (see Processing Groups).

SUTA Weeks: Enter the number of SUTA (State Unemployment Tax) Weeks for this pay period, if applicable.

  • For a regular timesheet, the SUTA weeks default to the number of weeks specified for the selected processing group. If a different number of SUTA weeks is entered other than the default value, that new number is used in the calculation process. This means that a zero may be entered to have no SUTA calculated.

Timesheet Reference: Enter a timesheet reference number for tracking purposes, if desired.

FAQs about timesheets in MIP Cloud

Enter Regular Timesheets for employees who do not have Default Timesheets (perhaps because their payroll information varies from payroll to payroll), or to change an employee's Default Timesheet information for one particular payroll.

 

Enter Supplemental Timesheets to give employees off-schedule or other non-standard payments; for example, you would use a Supplemental Timesheet to create a replacement check for a voided Regular Payroll check. Note that timesheets entered using this form are for a particular processing group, pay date, pay period begin date, and pay period end date.

 

If Default Timesheets (see Default Timesheet) have already been set up for all employees, that information automatically displays on this form, for both Regular and Supplemental Timesheets.

To view Earning code rates and amounts, clear the "Hide Earning Code Rates and Amounts During Timesheet Processing" checkbox in Payroll module setup (see Set Up the Payroll Module).

To reimburse an employee for a separate expense, create an Earning code with the "Contribute to Net Pay Only" checkbox selected (see Earning Codes). This will allow you to reimburse the employee the net pay amount without the amount being subject to taxes and fringe benefits.
