Overriding payroll record calculations
Before the final-compute for payroll records, you can override the calculated amounts. If you know the amount, enter it while entering the timecard. Otherwise, it is a good idea to trial-compute the payroll records first. Then when reviewing the trial-computed record, enter the amount.
To override a payroll record calculation:
- Open 5-2-2 Payroll Records.
- Enter the timecard.
- Click > .
-
Open 5-2-3 Compute Payroll, and select Trial-compute the payroll record(s).
Important! After final-computing a payroll record, you cannot change the amounts on the Calculations tab.
- In the 5-2-2 Payroll Records window, select the record you want to change.
- Click the Calculations tab.
- For each payroll calculation that you want to change, do the following:
- In the Amount cell, enter the amount that you want to use.
- In the Override cell, type Yes.
- Click > .
Tip: When a payroll record is assigned status 1-Open or 2-Bonus, type Yes in an Override cell for Sage 100 Contractor to use the amount you enter.
