Common issues regarding changes to an employee status
(other than termination)
- Change in employee pay frequency.
- Go to Payroll – Employees – Modify Existing Employees

- Select employee
- Click on Positions tab and Wage sub tab

- Change the Pay Period Frequency to the new appropriate frequency. This is very important as it controls the tax calculation for the employee

- Ending a Pay Code for an employee. If an employee will no longer be earning or having a deduction/benefit made on a specific pay code, it should be terminated.
- Go to Payroll – Employees – Modify Existing Employees

- Select employee
- Click on Pay Codes tab and click the pencil to edit pay code

- Enter an End date on the employee or employer tab as appropriate. The end date MUST be at least 1 day after the check issue date the pay code was used on last. For example, if health insurance was last withheld/calculated for the employee on the 4/13/19 payroll and the check issue date of that payroll is 4/19/19, the end date must be 4/20/19 or later. This date may need to be recorded on both the employee and employer tabs of the pay code.

- Starting a Pay Code for an employee. If an employee will begin be a new earning/deduction/benefit, it may require a begin date. The most common reason for a begin date on a pay code is if an existing employee becomes eligible for retirement or social security/medicare at a time other than upon hire. A begin date will allow the system to accurately calculate the wage that are subject to retirement/social security/medicare.
- Go to Payroll – Employees – Modify Existing Employees

- Select employee
- Click on Pay Codes tab and click the pencil to edit pay code (assumes you have already added it to the employee)

- Enter a Begin date on the employee or employer tab as appropriate. The begin date should be the date the employee became eligible but MUST be at least 1 day after the last check issue date in which the employee was not eligible. For example, an employee became eligible for retirement starting on the 4/14/19 payroll. The prior payroll eneded on 4/13/19 payroll and the check issue date of that payroll was 4/19/19, the begin date must be 4/20/19 or later. This date may need to be recorded on both the employee and employer tabs of the pay code.
