TRY IT OUT
Ann, a payroll administrator for a large organization, is running her usual cycles for the upcoming pay period. While processing payroll, she uses Smart Pay Analytics within Pro to confirm her employee data and utilize the convenient clickable cards to audit and ensure she has a smooth payroll run with no errors.
Let’s see how using the Smart Pay Analytics feature within UKG Pro™ Pay helps Ann have a more intuitive experience and gain greater visibility to confirm her payroll data.
Ann first logs into Pro Pay and navigates to her Payroll Gateway where she can see all current pay groups and their respective pay dates. She then clicks into the pay group she is running to view key analytics on convenient cards that containing critical data— including active/not paid, zero net pay, terminated paid, on leave of absence, and under/over hours.

Ann can see that the section to "Compare this payroll" is already populated with data. This useful dataview shows her any differences between the last payroll cycle she ran for this same pay group, and the current cycle.
Ann notices some differences from the prior cycle and decides to click on the “Leave of Absence” card to investigate, as it has one employee indicated.

Ann can also see that there is one employee who is "Active not paid". She clicks on the card, and on further investigation, discovers that this employee has a status of "Active", but the pay is missing. Ann will need to ensure the employee receives a check for this pay cycle, and any remaining.

Ann can now see that there is one employee in the "Active not paid" card. However, upon further investigation, Ann discovers that this employee has a status as “Active” but the pay is missing. Therefore, Ann will need to ensure the employee receives a check this pay period— and for any remaining payrolls.
Click to Save
Ann has corrected by adding the pay to the active employee. When she is finished, she goes ahead and closes the screen to make sure the most up-to-date information is displayed. Ann now sees that the data has been corrected and the “active not paid” card has disappeared, which means that she can now continue to successfully process payroll to completion.
