Pay Check - HRS7700

Payroll > Utilities > Payroll Simulation > Pay Check

The Payroll Simulation tabs are used to create simulated payrolls for individual employees or groups of employees. This feature can show new employees what their checks will be or to show existing employees the changes to their paychecks before the changes become effective.

The Pay Check tab is used to preview and print the employee's proposed paycheck. Multiple changes can be made to data records and viewed on this tab. Users can use the Calculate button to update the tab after each change has been made.

Note: When running next year payroll simulations, the TRS year is determined by increasing your computer's date value by one year.

Once an employee is selected, the same employee's information is presented on all tabs of the Payroll Simulation utility.
A specific payroll frequency must be selected before clicking Execute; otherwise, no data displays. The user can select either current year or next year frequencies. All other parameters are optional.
