A pleasant day to you, tradercj.
I understand how important it is to process payroll on time. Since you'll be on a cruise, you should plan for unforeseen problems like a reliable internet connection to ensure that processing payroll will go well.
If you want to be sure, you can send your payroll ahead of time and it will still be deposited on the day you choose.
Here's how:
- Go to Employees, then Send Payroll Data.
- In the Send/Receive Payroll Data window, select View in the Items to Send section to review the information including the paycheck date.
- Click Close to close the View items window.
- Choose Send All. Enter your Payroll Service/Direct Deposit PIN then select OK.
- When done, you’ll return to the Send/Receive Data window. Under Items Received, select View to view important payroll messages or confirmation reports.
- Select Close to close the Send/Receive Data window.
