Paycheck Worksheet

Use the Paycheck Worksheet to calculate an employee's net pay. The page enables you to enter pay rates, deductions, taxes, special pays, and other data for simulating payroll processing factors.

You can use the worksheet to find how a change would affect an employee's pay. For example, if a deduction changes, you can calculate the employee's new take-home pay would be.
You also can use the worksheet to verify rate information and troubleshoot pay run problems.

Running the calculations has no effect on the employee's permanent records. As a result, you may repeat the simulation as many times as needed.

Menu Path: Human Resources > Entry & Processing > Employee > Employee Information > search for and select an employee > click OK to display the Employee Information detail page > select Actions on the Action Bar, and then click Paycheck Worksheet
