Payroll & compensation
Payroll periods and history
Admin/Payroll: open a month's saved payroll and understand Generated, Approved, and Finalized.
What this does
Admin/Payroll: retrieves a saved month's run from the same Generate Payroll page.
Steps
- Open Generate Payroll and change the month and year under Period.
- If a saved run is available, review Payroll Summary and Payroll status. Generated identifies the editable draft; Approved identifies an approved run; Finalized identifies processed or paid runs. The status metric can still show Processed or Paid.
- For a finalized run, choose View to jump to Payroll Summary or Download Payslips for employee PDFs. If No payroll generated appears, no run was loaded for the selected period.
Result
The selected period's available records are displayed without creating a new run. A Paid label or recorded payment status is not bank settlement verification.
