When processing payrun I am constantly receiving payment lines in the payroll with zero value and a warning to that effect.    This never used to happen but lately it is a common occurrence.  I end up deleting these lines but this is a constant annoyance. Any idea how to fix it?

Hi fairfield-impex,

 

To be able to not show the zero value lines from your pay run, I would recommend checking the employee's pay rates and pay run defaults settings. Here's how:

 

  1. Click on the Employee's tab.
  2. Click on the Employee's name on the list.
  3. Click on Pay Run Defaults.
  4. Check what is the Employee's Primary pay category.

 

Then, next check the pay rates tab to see what category you've enabled to Show on the pay run.

 

  1. Click on the Employee's tab.
  2. Click on the Employee's name.
  3. Click on Pay Rates.
  4. Locate the pay rate that keeps showing on the pay run with 0 value.
  5. And then, untick SHOW IN PAY RUN box to not show that category on the employee's earnings.
  6. Click on Save.

 

Once done, you can create a dummy pay run to see how the earnings line of the employee looks.
