Need to pay for shifts or items that were added after a payrun was already processed?
Use the Exception Payrun feature to handle these updates right away—without waiting for the next pay period. It’s a fast way to fix payroll errors and make sure employees get paid correctly.
Why it matters
Previously, corrections had to wait until the next payrun or be manually tracked. Exception Payruns streamline this process, ensuring timely and accurate payments.
Key capabilities
- Immediate Adjustments: Pay employees for newly added items without waiting for the next cycle.
- OT Rule Compliance: Overtime calculations span both the original and exception payruns to ensure proper compensation.
- Controlled Access: Only users with the “Create Exception Payrun” permission can initiate this process.
How to use
- Go to HR & Payroll → Prepare Payrun.
- Click Create Exception Payrun.
- Select:
- Pay Schedule
- Region (based on your access)
- Date Range (includes 2 months before and after current date)
- Submit and approve the payrun.
📌 Note: You cannot create multiple exception payruns for the same period simultaneously. Each must be approved and locked before starting another.
UI enhancements
- A new “Type” column in the payrun list shows “Recurring” or “Exception”.
- Clearer dropdown defaults: “Select a Pay Schedule” and “Select a Region”.
Permissions
