Step 2: Update Essential Screens in Costpoint Employee

If your company uses only Costpoint Labor and Leave to enter timesheets and accrue leave for your employees:

  • Each timesheet period, before entering timesheets, add any new employee information to the following screens:
    • Manage Employee Information
    • Manage Employee Leave
    • Manage Employee Salary Information
  • If applicable, you should also enter changes for current employees, such as:
    • Salary increases
    • Manage Employee Leave
    • Manage Employee Information
  • Proceed to Step 3.

If your company uses Costpoint Labor in conjunction with Costpoint Payroll:

Because you are also using Costpoint Payroll, each pay period, before entering timesheets, you must enter any new employee information into the following Costpoint Employee screens in the order listed below. The Manage Employee Salary Information screen uses the Pay Cycle you used on the Manage Employee Taxes screen to calculate the salary information on the Manage Employee Salary Information screen. The Payroll Salary amount on the Manage Employee Salary Information screen is based on the Frequency (weekly, biweekly, semimonthly, monthly) set up for the Pay Cycle on the Manage Pay Periods screen.

  • Manage Employee Information
  • Manage Employee Taxes
  • Manage Employee Salary Information
  • Manage Employee Deductions
  • Manage Employee Contributions
  • Manage Employee Leave

For current employees, enter changes such as:

  • Salary increases
  • Payroll taxes
  • Payroll deductions
  • Payroll contributions
  • Employee Leave

Proceed to Step 3.
