Creating pay groups

Set up the different pay periods you use as Pay Groups. Then attach dates to the groups yearly for paying resources associated with each group.

NOTE: Pay Groups vs. Pay Rate Groups

Pay groups are different from Pay Rate Groups, which categorize resources by how you classify them for pay amounts, such as experience level, percentage, or affiliates.

  1. Setup > Lists > Resources
  2. Click Pay Group.
  3. You can create new groups, edit, delete or merge groups, except the default pay group, which cannot be deleted or merged. For how to set up pay groups, see Customizing lists.
NEXT: Set up pay dates for the year

After setting up Pay Groups and at the beginning of each year, set up the year’s pay dates and their corresponding cutoff dates for each pay group. Doing so drastically reduces the number of payroll errors caused by entering the wrong date when running payroll.
