Pay Frequency

On the Employees form, select the pay frequency that indicates how often to pay the employee. The pay frequency is also used to calculate the withholding tax for the employee.

These are the valid pay frequencies:

  • Daily - The employee is paid daily.
  • Weekly - The employee is paid once each week.
  • Bi-weekly - The employee is paid once every two weeks.
  • Semi-monthly - The employee is paid twice a month.
  • Monthly - The employee is paid once every month.
  • Quarterly - The employee is paid once every quarter.

If a record exists for this employee on the Employee Salary form, this field on the Employees form cannot be overwritten unless you change and save the employee record in Employee Salary and then run the Employee Salary Update utility.
