Once an employee is included in a finalized payroll within a pay group, their record can’t be moved to a different pay group. You’ll need to create a new employee record and assign it to the new pay group or pay frequency. After that, you can set up a new pay run schedule using the new record.

If the employee has not finalized payroll within a pay group

  1. Go to Employees on the left side.

  2. Select Edit Employee for the employee you need to update

  3. Scroll to the Hours and rates section

  4. Update the Pay frequency*.

  5. Click Save and close employee.

  6. Repeat this for all employees that need to be updated.
