The Payroll Register is a list of payroll information per employee. It’s a breakdown of where money came and went in a given date range, including all deductions, bonuses, etc. In the report generator you can add categories of information that you want to include in the report; you can also specify the dates that you would like the report to run from and to. If you enter a date range that crosses multiple payroll periods they will be combined into a total amount, per person.
