Issuing Advance Payments

Advance processing is the processing of on-cycle calendars ahead of their regular schedule. Use the advance functionality of off-cycle processing when you want to pay an employee before his or her normal on-cycle pay run. Examples include payments for early terminations (for which the termination payment needs to be paid immediately and not in the next on-cycle pay run), full period advances, and partial period advances.

Observe the following guidelines when making advance payments:

• Always select the next open calendar, because skipping calendars may update accumulators incorrectly.

• Absence accumulators calculate automatically for the calendar group selected.
