Specify Other Pay Amounts for the Current Pay Period

The Other Pay fields are user-defined, one-time, pay amounts that are added to the gross and net pay amounts for your employees.

On the Employee Review tab of the Payroll Processing form, you can override the default set in the Employees hub and enter an additional pay amount for the employee for the current processing session. Other pay amounts are tracked in a separate category and are represented separately on reports. When payroll is posted, the amounts entered in the Other Pay fields are debited to the account specified in the corresponding Other Pay Cost Account field established on the Other Pay Setup tab of Payroll Setup.

When you enter an other pay amount for employees, DPS adds this amount to the employee’s base pay (Regular/Salary + Overtime + Secondary Overtime) and adjusts the withholdings accordingly.

1. On the Navigation menu, click Human Resources > Payroll > Payroll Processing.
2. On the Select Posting Run dialog box, select a payroll run and click Open, or click New to create a new payroll processing run.
3. On the General tab of Payroll Processing, enter information.
4. Click the Employee Review tab and select the employee records that you want to review.

6. In the Other Pay field in the Hours and Pay grid, enter the amount.
7. Click Save.
8. If you selected multiple records, scroll to the next record and enter other pay amounts.
