Ensuring everyone gets compensated accurately is paramount for a smooth payroll process. If you find yourself needing to add someone to payroll without their hours logged on the platform, don’t worry. Your payroll dashboard provides a straightforward solution.

In this article, we'll guide you through the steps to seamlessly add an individual to payroll, even if their hours haven't been recorded on the platform.

Steps to Add a Person without Logged Hours to Payroll:

  1. Access Your Payroll Dashboard: Log in to your payroll dashboard and navigate to the "Pay" tab. This is the central hub where you manage all things related to compensation.

  2. Initiate Payroll Run: Once on the "Pay" tab, proceed to "Run Payroll” or “Pending Payroll”. This is where you begin the process of adding individuals to payroll, irrespective of whether their hours are on the platform or not.

  3. Locate "Add Employee" Option: Within the "Run Payroll" section, you'll find a box that says "Add Employee." Click on this option to start the process of adding someone to payroll, even if their working hours haven't been previously recorded.

  4. Enter Employee Information: Upon selecting "Add Employee," a new window will appear, prompting you to enter the necessary information for the individual you're adding to payroll. Fill in the required details, ensuring accuracy in their personal and employment information.

  5. Specify Compensation Details: In the same window, specify the compensation details for the individual. This includes salary, hourly rate, or any other relevant payment information. Be thorough to ensure precise and correct payroll processing.

  6. Complete the Payroll Run: After entering the required information, proceed to complete the payroll run or save as pending. The individual will now be added to payroll, and their compensation will be processed accordingly.

In conclusion, the process of adding someone to payroll without logged hours on the platform is straightforward and user-friendly. Utilize your payroll dashboard's "Run Payroll" feature, specifically the "Add Employee" option, to seamlessly include individuals in your payroll system.
