PTO Groups

If you licensed the Payroll Paid Time Off feature set, you can track an employee’s paid time off (PTO) information. PTO includes the time an employee can take off with pay, such as vacation or personal time. Assign the PTO groups to the employee to accrue and relieve it as time is earned and taken.

  • PTO Group
  • Current PTO Group
  • Current Accrual Rate
  • Active: If you make the PTO group inactive, the employee will not be able to use any remaining balance or accrue additional time to it.
Remittance Information
  • Pay Type: EFT Pre-note, EFT or Check. If you select EFT Pre-note, ProviderPro will create a practice EFT transaction to send to the bank (to verify routing and account numbers are correct) and create a check for the employee. After you mark the EFTs as closed, the Payment Type will automatically change to “EFT.” The next time payroll is processed only the EFT is created. If you select “EFT Prenote” or “EFT,” you must enter at least one Employee EFT entry with an amount of -1. If not, you will receive an error message when you try to save the employee.
  • EFT Stub Type: If the Payment Type is “EFT” and EFT stubs are being emailed to employees or you have licensed Sandata MyPay, you need to select the Email EFT Stub Type. If emailing, select which of the employee’s email addresses to send it to: “Email 1,” “Email 2” or “Email 3.” If sending it to Solana MyPay, select “Send to Solana MyPay.” Otherwise, set it to “Do Not Email” to print the EFT stub instead. Note: You must also select the Email Employee EFT Stubs check box or the Use Solana MyPay check box in PR Options. If not, this field will be disabled.

  • Last Payment Date: The Last Payment Date is automatically filled in during the payroll process. It is the date of the employee’s last pay check or electronic funds transfer (EFT).
  • Sandata MyPay Agency Key
  • Sandata MyPay Employee Key
EFTs

Employees cannot receive part of their pay as an EFT and the rest in a check. To pay an employee by EFT, you must also set up the company’s EFT information in the GL Money Account that will be used to pay this employee.

If this employee has a Payment Type of “EFT” or “EFT Prenote,” you must enter one or more EFTs:

  • Account Type: Checking or Savings.
  • DFI: The nine-digit routing number of the employee’s bank account.
  • Account Number
  • Amount: The amount to be deposited. The last entry in the sequence must have -1 as the amount to indicate the balance should be deposited in that account.
  • Sequence: A number to indicate what order to process the EFTs, if the employee has more than one account.
Wage Defaults

The Add Defaults Wizard uses employee wage defaults to create Wage Entries. These Wage Entries can be used as a starting point to make data-entry quicker.

Employees can have multiple Wage Defaults - one for each job title and cost center. However, if you are setting up allocations for an employee using the Allocations card, the employee should only have one Wage Default.

  • Cost Center
  • Job Title
  • Wage Type
  • Base Pay Rate: The base pay rate selected must have a rate associated with it.
  • Hours/Amount
Allocations

Instead of manually allocating an employee’s time to multiple cost centers as you are creating Wage Entries, you can automate this process by setting up allocations. You will then enter all of the employee’s wages into one Wage Entry for one job title/cost center combination and let the Calculate Wage Wizard automatically perform the allocations based on the percentage allocations settings.

It’s important to note that if multiple Wage Entries are entered for more than one job title and cost center for an employee, you may not get the Wage Results that you expect. Any active percent allocations in the employee’s record will be applied to all Wage Entries regardless of what job title or cost center has been entered in the Wage Entries themselves.

The number of allocations must equal 100% or you will not be able to save the employee’s record.

  • Cost Center
  • Job Title: The job title selected must be an active job title for this employee (entered on the Employment Information tab)
  • Percentage
