Union rates and benefits are subject to annual changes, and they often take effect mid-pay period. Currently, we must handle this by splitting payroll manually and generating separate reports for each portion of the pay period, which is time-consuming and increases the risk of errors.

It would be extremely helpful if the software allowed us to input union rates and benefits with an effective start and expiration date. This way, the system could automatically apply the correct rates based on the work dates during payroll processing, eliminating the need for split payrolls, two paystubs, double direct deposit numbers, and separate manual adjustments.

This added feature would improve efficiency, accuracy, and compliance with union agreements.

  • This happens to me too but when there are new changes to rates and benefits, i make new paygroups and then manually select the proper paygroup for the split week. and then after that payroll is complete, I change all the employees default paygroup to the new paygroup. No need for split payrolls.
