Pay Schedule

A Pay Schedule defines how often you pay your employees (pay frequency) and when you pay them (pay date). Based on your pay schedule, Zoho ERP reminds you to process payroll on time.

Configure Pay Schedule

To configure your pay schedule:

  1. Click Settings in the top-right corner.
  2. Click Pay Schedule under Setup & Configurations.
  3. Select your Work Week, which represents the number of days your business operates in a calendar week.
  4. Choose how employee salaries should be calculated:
    • Actual number of days in a month: Salaries will be calculated based on the number of days in the selected month and the configured work week. Weekends are treated as working days.
    • Fixed number of days per month: Salaries are calculated using the fixed number of days you specify (for example, 28), regardless of the actual number of days in the month.
  5. Select the Pay Date, which determines when employees receive their monthly salary.
  6. Select the First Pay Period, which is the month in which you plan to run your first payroll in Zoho ERP.

NOTE: You can change the pay schedule only before completing your first pay run. To make changes after configuring it, delete all existing pay runs (both draft and approved), and then update the pay schedule.
