Paycheck8

Viewing Pay Options

Pay Options allow the user to administer additional types of information to be associated with the T&A Time and Attendance Detail. The Pay Options displayed are dependent on the employee's profile.

Note: Prior to entering any pay option information, it is important to verify that the information being entered into the T&A Time and Attendance is for the pay period to which it applies.
