Step 2 or 3: Employee information
✓Based on the selection made in the previous step, you may enter or validate the employee’s basic information.
✓The modifications and results obtained during a simulation are not saved to the employee file.
1Under Pay period, modify the End of period date, as needed.
Make sure to select the correct end of period date in order for the system to run the calculations accurately, because the choice of pay period can have an impact on certain contributions, such as the monthly union dues.
IMPORTANT ✓By default, the End of period date field indicates the date of the next pay period based on your company’s calendar. If you wish to perform a simulation for a prior pay, for example, to simulate a separate payment, you have to select the corresponding prior pay period. ✓The pay period end date must be subsequent to the employee’s date of hire. |
