  1. Go to Employee Job/Salary (Payroll > Employee Maintenance > Employee Job/Salary)
  2. Search for the employee. Click Add in the toolbar. Define applicable fields. Click Accept. 

• If the Pay Status field is Inactive, it can be updated in Employee Job/Salary
  1. Go to Employee Job/Salary (Payroll > Employee Maintenance > Employee Job/Salary)
  2. Search for the employee and pay code. Click Update in the toolbar. Update the Pay Status to A-Active. Click Accept. 

• If the Pay code is incorrect in the import file, update the Pay code in the import file

In some cases, this may be a warning only and the pay may import into Time Entry.
