Payroll Calendar Page

The Payroll Calendar defines the pay periods, submission deadlines, and pay dates used in payroll processing. It ensures payroll runs occur on time and that employees are paid according to schedule. If multiple payroll companies are enabled, use the Payroll Company dropdown to toggle between them.

The page displays the selected company’s pay frequency, first and next pay dates, and submission cutoff dates. If no payroll calendar exists, the page displays a prompt to create one.
