Payroll setup for payroll administrators entails configuring core components, such as earnings and deductions, that are used by Dayforce to calculate the net pay of your organization's employees. The way you configure earnings and deductions defines the structure of your organization's payroll, including how employees' wages are classified and what deductions are taken from their pay, either before or after taxes.
Payroll configuration for payroll administrators can include creating, editing, and deleting accumulation periods, bank accounts for legal entities, check templates, certified payrolls, deferred compensation and pension plans, earning definitions, deduction definitions, groupings of earnings and deductions definitions, payroll taxes, third-party sick pay policies and payees.
