Create Payroll Interface
The Create Payroll Interface icon opens a wizard to search for pay period instances, and to launch a payroll interface, either to the Human Resources and Payroll system or to a third-party payroll system. Multiple payroll instances can be selected and created at the same time.
Date Range Begin
The first day to include in the date range to search for a pay group instance.
More About Date Value Fields
When a date field is highlighted, the Date Selector is displayed in the right pane to search for the date. Use the arrows in the heading bar to scroll to the Previous or Next month's calendar. Double-click on a date to enter it into the field. Alternatively, dates can be typed into the field.
File Share
The name of an existing file share location, where this download should be created.
More About File Patterns
The following Reserved Characters are used with Regular Expression Searches:
.
|
This symbol indicates a single character preceding the value entered in the field. When using other regular expressions indicating preceding characters, this symbol must also be used.
|
*
|
This symbol indicates a wild card for any number of previous characters. For example, .*RN would display all records that contain RN within the field value.
|
$
|
This symbol is used to indicate the ending value of a string, or an EXACT MATCH. When the symbol is placed after a value, there cannot be any other characters after the field value. For example, D$ indicates the value must end with D. Since there are no wild card symbols in front of D, this indicates an exact match.
|
^
|
This symbol is used to indicate the beginning value of a string. This can be used with a search string combining other reserved characters.
|
|
|
This symbol works like an OR operator. For example, hi|hello matches a string that has either "hi" or "hello" in it.
|
Combining Multiple Symbols in an Advanced Search Expression:
Multiple symbols can be combined to indicate a regular expression with different variables. For example, entering *.Manager$ will display all records that begin with any characters, but must end with Manager. The previous character symbol (.) and wild card symbol (*) at the beginning of the expression indicate any number of characters can be in front of the word Manager. The ending symbol ($) in the expression indicates the value must end with the word Manager.
