Workstream gives you flexibility to pay your team on schedule or issue one-time payments when needed. Use this hub to choose the right payroll workflow.
To get started, go to Team View › Payroll › Payroll.
📌 Access needed: To run payroll and download reports, you need the Manage Payroll Operations permission enabled. If you don't have access, reach out to your Super Admin.
Run regular payroll
Run regular payroll in Workstream if you’re paying employees on your normal pay schedule.
For the overall process, you will:
Create a payroll draft.
Enter team hours (upload your own file, pull from Workstream, or enter manually).
Review totals for accuracy.
Finalize and submit payroll for processing.
Run off-cycle payroll
Run off-cycle payroll in Workstream if you need to make a one-time payment outside your normal payroll run.
Use this payroll type for:
Bonuses or commissions
Reimbursements
Corrections
Final pay for departing employees
The process is similar with running regular payroll, with the exception of choosing the payroll type.
Run payroll in the new experience
If your account has the new spreadsheet-style payroll experience, see Run Payroll in the New Experience. You can switch between the old and new views using Use the old view and Use the new view.
Manage payroll drafts
You can also manage payroll drafts after they’ve been created.
