🎯 The Pay Run Settings Accordion allows you to select specific options that affect the information displayed and certain calculations performed when processing your pays.

🎯 The Pay Run Settings Accordion consists of Pay Run (below) and Pay Advice Slip Options.

🎯 Based on Single Touch Payroll Phase 2 requirements and how corrections are processed/reported to the ATO, e-PayDay Go provides three different Pay Run Types, which can be selected when commencing a new Pay Run - Regular, Out Of Cycle or Missed. Due to this, the dates for each Pay Period's first Regular Pay Run processed are defined within the Organisation settings. If there is a 'break' where no Payees are paid, the Pay Run Dates can be manually adjusted.

Pay Period allows you to select unique dates for each Pay Period you require, as listed in the Drop-Down Menu.

Clear enables you to automatically clear the Regular Pay Run Dates if you no longer need to process payroll for a specific Pay Period.

Pay Period Starts is dynamically calculated based on the Pay Period and Pay Period Ends Date selected.

Pay Period Ends requires you to select the Pay Period Ending Date for each Pay Period you require.

Pay Day requires you to select the Pay Day Date for each Pay Period you require.

🎯 Pay Day must be within 30 days either way of the Pay Period Ends for each Pay Period you require. As an example, if the Period End Date is 23rd August, Pay Day could be any date between 24th July and 22nd September.

Round to the nearest lower whole dollar:
