Payroll Calculations
ArboStar's "Calculations" section is a powerful tool for managing payroll processing and ensuring accurate and timely payments to employees.
With its user-friendly interface and robust functionality, you can easily track employee hours, calculate overtime pay, and generate detailed pay stubs.
This feature streamlines the process of updating employee information, as it eliminates the need to individually edit each employee's pay rate or hours worked.
To access the "Calculations" section, navigate to "Personnel" → "Payroll" → "Calculations".
The list can be filtered based on the time periods.
You can either use the arrows to access the previous or next payroll weeks or you can choose the time period from the calendar.
To access the required time period from the calendar, simply click on the "Date" field.
From the calendar you can either choose the time period or click on "Today" to access the current payroll information.
In a row under the date you can see the overall regular pay hours and overtime hours for all the employees, the overall deductions for all the employees, the overall salary for all the employees and the approved sum of salary for all the employees for the time period chosen.
Note that if you click on the "Regular Pay Hours" section you will be directed to the "Overtime" section and vice versa.
You can edit hours and rates from the list rather than separately for every employee, helping you save a significant amount of time and effort.
This can help to minimize errors and reduce the time required to update employee information.
You can edit or add employee's regular and overtime hours, hourly and overtime rates as well as add expenses and deductions.
