Add a new pay schedule

Your first pay schedule is created when you set up payroll. You might want to add more pay schedules if you have salaried or hourly employees who are paid at different times or for different pay periods.

There are two ways to add a pay schedule:

When you add a new employee

1. In the left navigation bar, click Employees.
2. Click Add employee.
3. Either select an existing pay schedule under How often do you pay this employee?, or select Add new to create a new one. To modify the selected pay schedule, click the pencil icon.
4. Enter the details for the new schedule. If the schedule will apply to all new employees you add, be sure to select the checkbox to use this schedule going forward.
5. Click Done.

At any time from Payroll Settings

1. Click your company name in the top right, and then click Payroll Settings.
2. Click Pay Policies.
3. In the Pay Schedules box, click Create.
4. Enter the details for the new schedule. If the schedule will apply to all new employees you add, be sure to select the checkbox to use this schedule going forward.
5. Click OK.
6. On the Pay Schedule Confirmation page, click OK again.

If the new pay schedule applies to any existing employees, your next step is to edit each of the employees to change them to the new pay schedule.
