• How to Edit a Pay Schedule

Background
Patriot will automatically group your employees in a pay schedule based on the pay frequency you select. After you have completed your first-time setup and customized your pay schedule, you can still edit some of the Pay Schedule fields. See the chart below for available edits based on whether you used a pay schedule in payroll or assigned employees.

How to Edit an Existing Pay Schedule

(Not used in payroll)

1. Go to Settings > Payroll Settings > Pay Schedules.
2. Click on the name of the schedule you want to edit.
3. Update the name, pay period ends on the date, or pay date as needed. 
4. Click “Save.”

Why can’t I edit the “Pay Frequency” or the “Pay Period End” dates?

• If you have used a pay schedule in a payroll, you can’t edit the Pay Frequency or the Pay Period End dates. You can, however, adjust the pay date at any time.
• In cases where you need to adjust the pay frequency or pay period dates, you must create a new pay schedule and re-assign pay schedules to employees as needed. 

If you need a one-off payroll, run an Off-cycle. Check out our help article, “How do I Run an Off-cycle Payroll?” for more info.
