Step 2: Import timecards
When a payroll is first opened, it will by empty by default (i.e. timecards are not automatically imported from SocialSchedules). This is so companies can follow their own processes for reviewing and approving timecards.
Once managers have finished approving timecards for the period within SocialSchedules, you will need to Import payroll to bring in all relevant information for the payroll period. This includes all approved timecards from SocialSchedules, covering employee hours, rates, and penalties owed, to create a draft payroll.
To do this:
Go to Payroll in the menu.
Locate the open payroll for the pay period you want to process.
Select Import payroll.
When the import is complete, a confirmation message appears.
If changes are made to timecards in SocialSchedules after the initial import (including editing existing timecards, changing a timecard's status to Approved or adding a new timecard), these can still be brought into Salaris by clicking the Reimport payroll button.
However, reimporting timecards will discard all information in the current payroll, including any manual adjustments, and effectively re-create the payroll.
