Approve and Close a Payroll Period

Before closing a payroll period, you must clear all discrepancies or put them in the Ignore Discrepancies list. We advise to correct as much discrepancies as possible. The more discrepancies you put in the ignored list the bigger chance to have incorrect payroll times at the end of the period. The ignored discrepancies give you only the possibility to close the period, but the issues will remain.

Be careful before closing a payroll period. This action is NOT reversible with the standard tools available to you in Rapid ERP. In case of wrong close action please contact the support team.

1. Go to Human Resources -> Payroll and right-click on the last period (with status “Open”).
2. Select Generate Payroll.
3. Double-click on the period and set the status to Closed.
4. Put check marks both on Approved and Locked.
   
   
5. Click Save.

If there are unresolve discrepancies Rapid ERP shows you a warning message. How to correct them see here.
