Shop-Trak Payroll Overview

This topic describes the general Payroll steps using Shop-Trak (after the initial setup).

  1. Labor Hours are generated directly through Shop-Trak Transactions.
  2. Enter Vacation/Sick/Other Hours in Payroll or Human Resources.
  3. Generate and Compute Payroll.

The integration between Shop-Trak and Infor SyteLine payroll is done through the Shop-Trak Generate Payroll activity form by specifying input selections for:

Functionality has been added to Shop-Trak to eliminate the need for manual transactions during the Payroll processing related to rounding adjustments and overtime hours.  These fields found on the Payroll tab of the Shop-Trak Parameters form can be utilized to simplify the payroll process:

Daily Shop-Trak transactions can be adjusted to the nearest hour or half hour and summarized by date and rate to minimize rounding issues, which may cause uneven daily total hours. 

The system will then calculate the number of overtime, double-time, or holiday hours by employee according to the Shop-Trak Payroll Generation Tables.

During the Generation process, the Reporting Date feature will group transactions according to the Shop-Trak Break Lunch Schedule’s Reporting+Payroll Date setting.  This setting will properly group a "days work" into a single date, even when the working duration crosses midnight. 

Example:

When defining the Reporting Date as End of Shift, each Payroll Log Hour will be dated 02/04/12.   Actual dates on the transactions will not be changed.  

Shift Start     Transaction Times    Transaction Date      Day                

02/03/12         22:30 to 23:30             02/03/12                     Sunday Evening 

02/03/12         23:30 to 03:00             02/03/12                     Sunday Evening/Monday Morning    

02/03/12         03:00 to 06:00             02/04/12                     Monday Morning
