Enter exceptions to payroll checks.
A payroll check is a written document that directs a bank to pay money as instructed. Use Enter Payroll Checks to enter exceptions to the pay code amounts that the routine will use to generate the employee's payroll check. An exception occurs when an amount or quantity on an employee's payroll check needs to be updated with a different amount or quantity. Examples of exceptions include leave hours, sick leave, or compensation time.
