This page will calculate the payroll, hours worked, overtime, sick pay, vacation pay, commissions, and all taxes to withhold. This page acts as a first step to calculating payroll for a payee/user. There are a number of links that help you manage the resulting data and to help look up reports (real numbers) and data. Feel free to add/edit fields as needed. Consider this page as the add form for payroll.

If you are not using the Adilas system time clocks and timecards, you may have to manually enter hours and extended hourly pay amounts. Anything that is not feed in by the system becomes your responsibility to add and make correct. The end goal of this page is to get the correct gross pay amounts. All other tax calcs (below gross pay) will be done on the server once submitted.

The local math help checkbox (middle of the page) will only work for items and totals above that section (above gross pay). Its job is to help you add up the totals in that column and do simple math (what makes up the gross amount).

The other checkbox, at the bottom of the page, is called the recalc taxes checkbox. This checkbox will make the server recalc the withholdings and taxes once submitted. If left uncheck, the numbers will be taken and entered into the database "as is". If you choose to recalculate the taxes (bottom most checkbox being checked), make sure that the numbers add up to the gross and adjusted gross amount correctly. Don't worry about the actual taxes, withholdings, net pay and employer contributions. Those numbers will be recalculated on the server once the page is submitted. The reason that they (withholdings and taxes) are not recalculated on the fly (while the page is open) is because the system has to look-up a number of sub tables and compare values in order to get the correct results. In a nut shell, make sure that the top section adds up the to the gross pay and the other fields will be calculated on the server once submitted.

If you working with timecards and see the words "memo hours" and aren't sure what this is, that is a term used to help calculate overtime. A memo hour is a timecard that falls within the current pay period but may have already been on a previous payroll period or may be on a future payroll period. That value (in hours) is really important for figuring out overtime per week. Memo hours are not included on the actual totals at the bottom. They are just there to help you keep track of what was done for the weeks in question. Look for the link that says "this pay period" (up by the timecard reports) and it will have the correct hours worked.

Special Note: This page is actually in the add mode even though it doesn't say it. Once you submit the page, the data is recalculated and stored in the database. If you make a mistake, don't come back to this page to fix it. Look for the edit pay check stub link and edit the info from there. If you come back to this page and click the "create paycheck stub" button again, it will create a duplicate entry. That is like clicking the "add" button again. To fix things, look for the edit link.
