Payroll Statuses

Each payroll run on the History tab shows a status that tracks progress through payroll processing.

Who this is for

Employers and Payroll Feature Admins who can access Payroll History. A Global Admin signed in as the employer follows the employer steps.

To access:

Select Payroll in the top navigation menu.
Select History in the secondary navigation menu.
In the Subgroup drop-down, select a payroll subgroup.

The table lists payroll runs with a Status, Pay Period, and Total Payroll. For how to open a run from this list, see Viewing a History of Opened and Past Payroll Runs.

Status definitions:

OPEN

The payroll run is still in progress and has not been submitted for final processing.
Select the pay period link to continue editing or reviewing the run.

PROCESSING

The payroll run has been submitted and is being processed.
The run is view-only; you cannot change it while it is processing.

COMPLETED

Payroll processing finished successfully and the run is closed.
Select the pay period link to review the finalized run details.

By default, runs are sorted by pay period end date with the most recent listed first. You can sort by Status or Pay Period using the column headers.
