Enable Auto Pay by Pay Type

Pay types are configured in HR Admin > Pay Type and are used to categorize employees into different groups that describe how they are paid, such as hourly or salaried.

You must configure pay types in Dayforce before you can enable auto pay by pay type.

Only employees who are assigned a pay type that has auto pay enabled are paid using the auto pay functionality.

To enable auto pay for a pay type: 

  1. Go to HR Admin > Pay Type.
  2. Select the Auto Pay Payroll checkbox for the appropriate pay type.
  3. Click Save.
