Payment and receipt formats

Payment formats define the information that appears on payment and direct deposit receipts. You assign a payment format to each bank account.

This table contains detailed descriptions of what you can include on a receipt for each of the payment formats.

When you print payments during the payroll cycle, you can print an hourly rate for hourly employees for payment formats 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 9. The option to print an hourly rate for hourly employees is not valid with payment option 0 or blank. For payment formats that allow printing of time and attendance balances, you can define parameters to print balances for plans associated with a plan class when you define time and attendance plans. For more information, see the Time and Attendance User Guide.

The pay codes and deduction codes print in numeric and then alphabetic order of the code (not the description). If there are more pay codes or deduction codes on a payment than the limits allow, the last entry on the pay receipt is a total of all the remaining pay codes or deduction codes.
