The Payroll Dashboard provides four key dashboards: Labor Cost Allocation, Overtime, Wages, and Alerts. These help track payroll expenses, trends, and discrepancies efficiently.

The Labor Cost Allocation shows how wages are distributed by job, location, or worker, giving visibility into cost drivers.
The Overtime tracks daily and weekly overtime, helping you manage compliance and spot cost overruns before payroll closes.
The Wages provides a breakdown of gross pay, net pay, taxes, and deductions so you can quickly validate payroll accuracy.
The Alerts flags potential issues such as missing hours, unusual pay spikes, or compliance risks, allowing you to take corrective action early.

Together, these dashboards make it easier to monitor payroll health, control costs, and keep pay accurate.
