How to Find Year-To-Date Payroll Totals

To get your year-to-date payroll totals from the beginning of the year through now, (or a payroll summary for any date range)

  1. Go to the Payroll Details report, found in Reports > Payroll Reports > Payroll Details.
  2. Filter at the top of the page:
    • Change the Start Date to January 1 of this year.  The End date will default to your most recent payroll activity, but you can change this as needed.
    • To include all employees, leave all of them selected.  Otherwise, choose the employees you want to include in the report.
    • All sources will be selected by default.  Otherwise, choose the sources you want to include in the report.
    • Choose how you want to group the report.  When getting year-to-date numbers, the “Employee” grouping is helpful if you want to see year-to-date totals by employee.  Otherwise, “Totals” will give total amounts for all employees etc. 
      • Check: will display each payroll entry separately, including whether it was an actual paycheck, a payroll update, or a prior payroll history entry, and the check transaction date and time. Note the transaction date and times are in your company’s time zone.
      • Pay Date: will aggregate all checks together for each pay date in the date range.
      • Employee: will aggregate all checks together for one employee, helpful if you need to look up year-to-date earnings.
      • Totals: will aggregate all employees’ checks together. Use this option to view the total for all employees.
      • Location: If you have added more than one company location, you can view the total for all employees at that location.
  3. Click Run Report and you will see year-to-date totals for each employee.
