Running your first distribution

Three steps from approved timesheets to posted journal entries.


Once your period's timesheets are approved and pay is configured:

  1. Setup & Check. Select the payroll period. WiseCost verifies that all timesheets are approved and every employee has pay configured, and flags anything pending.
  2. Employee Review. See each employee's pay, hours, and calculated hourly cost for the period. Confirm the numbers.
  3. Preview & Post. Review the journal entries WiseCost generated, with labor cost allocated to each contract, and click Post. The entries go directly to QuickBooks Online.

The whole run takes a few minutes. Every posted entry is tracked in the Audit Trail, and if you ever need to correct a posted period, see Reopening a payroll period or timesheet.
