Updating my organisations pay schedules | HR Web Platform

Overview

As an organisation, you would use a pay schedule to determine at what time intervals your employees will receive payment. Your organisation could have employees on weekly, fortnightly or monthly schedules, each with a different setup that makes sure your employees get paid the correct amount at the correct time.

This feature allows you to synchronise the pay schedules created on your payroll platform and make them selectable within your HR platform. Making sure HR has the latest payroll configuration data and makes sure your employee records have the correct information.

Ongoing synchronisation with the payroll platform

Once you have connected your payroll and HR platforms, the HR platform becomes the source of truth for your company settings, payroll settings, and employee file data. To read further details on how to update an employee's salary history details, refer to the following article.

When you first connect the two platforms, the HR platform will pull the data from the payroll platform into the HR platform, such as your pay schedule data. Any additional changes to pay schedules after this initial integration, requires you to update your pay schedule data manually.

Once you have imported any recent changes from the payroll platform, you can make amendments to an employee's file, such as their salary history. To read further details on how to manage pay schedules on your payroll platform, refer to the following article.

Why does the pay schedule show as disabled?

The HR platform will show a pay schedule as disabled, if the data no longer exists on your payroll platform. You can not delete disabled pay categories if you have used them previously in the HR platform. The reason for this is platform data accountability and to make sure that when you use the Audit Trail feature, we display the correct logs of what changes occurred within your platform.

Author recommended

So you have now updated your organisations pay schedules and you are now wondering what next can I do. There are two recommendations I would make on this front and they are:

  • HR platform: Update pay categories This feature is where you can sync the latest pay category data from your payroll platform over to your Employment Hero platform.
  • HR platform: Leave categories This feature is where you can sync the latest leave category data from your payroll platform over to your Employment Hero platform.
