Description of Issue

Semi-Monthly pay period built using MM/16/YYYY as the start date of the month. In the Second Day of the Month field, MM/30/YYYY. When looking at the timesheet, the last day of the period is showing current day when it should be tomorrow.



Context

  • Time & Attendance

  • Pay Period Configuration



Cause

The start date is looking for the first day of the pay period in the month instead of the last day of the period.



Resolution

  1. Navigate to System Admin > Master File Management > Pay Periods

  2. Find the pay period and click Edit (Pencil icon).

  3. In the Start Date field, choose a date that is the 1st of the month.

  4. In the Second Day of the Month field, enter 16.

  5. Click Save.



Additional Information

This configuration would be needed when the pay cycle runs from the 1st of the month to the 15th, then the 16th to the last day of the month.
