Dates for Payroll Cycles {FPRM-21}


This option is used to define the period applicable to Payroll cycles. The initial dates are set when the system is installed, but the user may create new records.

This option consists of two blocks. On the first block, the records created may be viewed. The second block offers the facility to create new records.


Take note that where the Pay Frequency is monthly, the Month Number refers to the calendar month (For example: January = 1, February = 2, et cetera)
