Paying new employee 1 additional day

We have a new employee (the first time I am doing payroll) they started on Friday 14 October and are paid fortnightly. So I am trying to work out how to pay them the fortnight +1 day. 

 

I tried making the 'pay period start' date 14 Oct, but it seems no matter what I change that date to it still only shows the fornightly pay amount at the next step. 

 

Can anyone help?

 

Thanks

    Hi lib,

     

    Thank you for reaching out. 

     

    You can select the relevant pay period dates, however, you would need to manually override their base hourly/salary field to include the additional hours + $ amounts as the software would not automatically pick up the extra day when the pay period is extended. 

     

    If you were unsure where to find this field in the pay details (during the pay run process), do reach out so I can assist further.
