Bi-Weekly Payroll Cycles

To setup a bi-weekly payroll cycle, you must first setup a 14 day (two weeks) time unit in system setup, which can be used to specify the number of days in the agreement pay period.

Next, you must create a compensation agreement with the pay period field set to the newly created 14 days time unit.

Gross Pay Example

You are employed starting Monday, January 9 (2017) and the calculation period is January 1: January 31. We then have that E = January 9–31. Suppose that the agreement is €1400 per 14 days (Bi weekly) and your fixed working time is 8 hours Tuesday–Saturday. The result for each of the different Payout Day options are as followed:

Option Calculation Result
Calendar days €1400 / 14 * 23 = €2300
Week days €1400 / 14 * 17 = €1700
Weekend days €1400 / 14 * 6 = €600
Calendar working days €1400 / 14 * 16 = €1600
Week working days €1400 / 14 * 13 = €1300
Weekend working days €1400 / 14 * 3 = €300
