    • Scheduled for a certain date by selecting the date. Employees will receive their payslips via mobile app immediately or on the scheduled date. If the pay date is scheduled to a certain date, the employee will receive their payslip at approximately 8 AM on the selected date.
      Note: To avoid delays in payment processing, please avoid scheduling the pay date on weekends and bank holidays.

  3. Click the Publish button

  4. Once published, the payment and payroll status will change to “Published”. Please check and refresh your browser accordingly if you do not see any changes.

  1. Go to Payroll > Payments > Click on Unpublish for the payment that you want to unpublish payslips for

    • Do note that payments do not need to be unpublished in order

  2. A confirmation modal will appear and click on Unpublish Payroll.

  3. Your payroll will be unpublished and:

    • Payment status will change to “Pending”

    • Payroll status will change to “Finalised”. To make changes to the payroll, you can delete the payment

    • Employees will be notified and their previously published payslip will be removed from the mobile app.

    • Payment Date in the employee’s payslips will be updated as “Unpublished”.

    • Payment data will no longer be included in the monthly payslip aggregation.

    • Unpublishing payroll updates only the payment date on the latest payslip, making previously downloaded versions unaffected. Employees must re-download the latest payslip to access updated information.
