Important Dates

Besides such day-to-day tasks as approving financial and human-resources transactions, business-related tasks that should be performed biweekly or monthly are listed below.

 

Biweekly Tasks

  • Approve timesheets for employees paid biweekly before noon on Tuesdays, unless a holiday requires an earlier approval deadline.
  • Review check registers (ZPR_DETAIL_CHECK_REGISTER) for employees paid biweekly two days prior to payday to verify that the individuals listed are employees and are due the amounts indicated. The Payroll Distribution Report (ZPR_CC_WBS_DIST) can be printed as an additional verification measure if desired. (NOTE: Payroll sends an email reminder when they have completed the payroll process and you can perform this task.)
