Choosing a procedure when re-running payroll

You can re-run all or only error status time records when rerunning payroll.

  1. Before rerunning payroll, you must determine whether the error is related to recalculating or printing payments.
  2. Use the table below to determine the most efficient way to correct the error.

Before you continue processing the payroll cycle, all required programs up to and including Payment Print (PR160) must be completed successfully. See Payroll cycle: editing time records, Payroll cycle: pre-cycle maintenance, Payroll cycle: calculate earnings, and Payroll cycle: create payments.

Use this table to determine the procedure to follow when you must re-run payroll cycle programs:
