Pay Groups

A Pay Group is a group of employees who are assigned to the same pay policies (such as pay period, overtime policies, accruals, etc.). Pay Groups can be used in conjunction with New Hire Defaults to mass-edit a group of employees and apply specified pay policies that are not set up within the template that the employee is assigned to. This can be useful when applying union rules.

The system allows you to assign your employees to multiple pay groups. All policies for all groups to which an employee is assigned will be applied. If a policy exists in 2 or more pay groups to which an employee is assigned, it will only be listed once on the employee's main "Pay Policies" screen.
Note: The following policies can only be applied to an employee once: "Pay Period," "Holiday List," "Supervisor," "Department," and Default Schedule Rule."

Before you can use Pay Groups you must first create the company policies that you wish to associate with the group. See Policies for instructions on setting up company policies.
