Manual payments

Manual payments are employee payments that are separate from normal payroll processing. You can use manual payment processing to calculate, review, and make changes to a payment. You can also change or delete a previous manual payment that is not yet closed. You do not have to close the previous payroll cycle to create manual payments.

When a manual payment is calculated or added, HR Payroll calculates earnings and deductions for those manual payments. Deductions are taken for the selected deduction cycle based on the begin and end dates of the deductions in relation to the payment date. You can manually specify deductions or override existing deductions.

Before creating a manual payment, you must reserve payment numbers and direct deposit receipt numbers. You must reserve these numbers for each bank account that you plan to use with manual payments, manual direct deposits, or payment replacements. After a payment number is reserved, it is not available for normal payment system use.
