What is Payroll?

The term 'payroll' encompasses every employee of a company who receives a regular wage or
other compensation. Some employees may be paid a steady salary while others are paid for
hours worked or the number of items produced. All of these different payment methods are
calculated by a payroll specialist and the appropriate paychecks are issued. Companies often
use objective measuring tools such as timecards or timesheets completed by supervisors to
determine the total amount of payroll due each pay period.

PeopleSoft NA Payroll
What is it?
 It is an integrated part of Peoplesoft Human Resources.

 It feeds and receives data from other Human Resources Modules.

 Because payroll runs are typically large and time-consuming, our system calculates only
when needed, such as when you've made a change to an employee's pay or when an
employee's pay has not yet been calculated.
