How do I report on my organisation's pay run variances in Payroll?

Available for the following Payroll plans: Standard, Premium

Within your organisation, a pay run is the method through which you will distribute your employees' pay and entitlements for the hours they worked within a specific period, such as the last week or month. A pay run enables you to group employees on the same payment schedule together and process their payments, in the one instance, reducing your administrative time spent managing employee payments within your organisation.

The Pay Run Variance Reporting feature allows you to create a report comparing two pay runs within your organisation and see if there are any variances in the deductions, earnings, leave accrued or taken and expenses. You can also use this feature to download an excel file of this data, enabling you to load the report in Microsoft Excel.
