Hours to pay

Send approved hours to the month's pay in HR, or download a CSV for any payroll.

This is on the Professional plan. Admins and Finance can use it. Go to Hours to pay and choose the month.

People on a salary don't need this. HR pays them as usual.

Pay someone by the hour

Paying by the hour is off by default, and you set it for each person.

1. Go to People and click Edit beside them.
2. Tick Pay by the hour through HR.
3. Enter Pay an hour and save.

The person needs an HR record. Without one, the option doesn't show. Payroll in Ellibo HR must be on for your business.

Send a month's hours

Ready to send lists each person's approved hours for the month, their rate and the amount.

1. Tick the people to send.
2. Click Send to this month's pay.

It goes to the month's pay in HR as one Hours worked line for each person. Timesheets posts nothing to your books. Payroll posts the wages when you approve the pay run.

Only hours in fully approved weeks are sent, so keep approvals on. See Approve time.

How the pay line is set up

The Hours worked line starts as taxable, and not a PF or ESI wage. You can change that in HR's pay components. See Salaries and pay lines.

When someone can't be sent

Someone with approved overtime in HR that month can't be sent, so the same work isn't paid twice. They show with a message and can't be ticked. Remove the overtime in HR, or leave them out.

When time changed after approval

A person's line says when some of their time changed after approval. Pay uses what was approved. To correct it, reopen the week.

Take hours back

Sent to HR shows each person's line, and whether it is waiting for the pay run or already in one.

To take hours back, delete the line from the month's pay in HR. The hours then appear here again, and their weeks can be reopened.

Without Ellibo HR

Click CSV of approved hours at the top. It lists approved hours per person and day for the month, for any payroll. With approvals off, it lists all logged time.
