If you select the Commit job for a pay run in Payroll less than 48 hours prior to its check date, the application displays a tax liability confirmation dialog box.
In the dialog box, you must click Confirm to indicate that you understand and agree to the content of the message. The confirmation will be emailed to records.retention@dayforce.com.
If you do not agree to the message, click Cancel in the message to stop the pay run from being committed and close the confirmation dialog box.
Late Payroll Alert
You can configure Dayforce to send a reminder alert to users if one or more pay runs have not been committed within a certain number of days before their commit-by date. The following is an example of this alert sent to Message Center:
You configure the application to send this alert as follows:
- Subscribe the necessary users to the Late Payroll Reminder (Canada) Alert, the Late Payroll Reminder (USA) Alert, or both, depending on the pay runs they need to receive the alert about.
- Create a schedule for the Late Payroll Reminder Alert background job in System Admin > Background Jobs. This background job has the following parameters:
- Alert Definition: Select either the Late Payroll Reminder (Canada) Alert or the Late Payroll Reminder (USA) Alert. You must set up separate scheduled runs for this background job: one for Canada and one for the USA.
- Days Threshold: Enter a number to set how many days before the date that payroll must be committed before the alert is triggered. If one or more pay runs have not been committed within the threshold time period, the background job triggers late payroll reminder alerts for the uncommitted pay runs. For example, you enter 2. If a pay run has a commit-by date of January 26, and the pay run has not been committed on January 24, Dayforce runs this background job and generates the late payroll reminder notification for that pay run.
