# Creating Payroll Periods and Payslips

Prepare and review a payroll period before releasing payslips to employees.

## 1. Confirm the period

Select the correct company and payroll month. Check that employee details and salary components are current.

## 2. Review payroll inputs

Check attendance, leave, overtime, allowances, bonuses and deductions for the selected period.

## 3. Generate and reconcile

Generate the payroll records and compare totals against the approved inputs. Investigate differences before finalising.

## 4. Review payslips

Check employee details, earnings, deductions and contribution information. Release payslips only after the authorised review is complete.
