Add description field to payroll worksheet screen
This would allow users who are entering a limited access worksheet the ability to put in a description of why an employee is getting the pay. This would help the Payroll department to audit what is being entered and would be retained for historical tracking.
This has been a road block to using the limited access worksheets in our district.

We currently have the Transaction Pay Code in Payroll Worksheet which can be used to add a description why an employee is getting paid. Currently, what happens is when you select the Worksheet Detail record into Payroll, it pulls all the deductions/benefits from the Pay Record Pay Code, then renames the Pay Code to the Transaction Pay Code. When it comes through on the check, it’s the Transaction Pay Code, but everything is pulled from the Pay Record with the Pay Record Pay Code. Our suggestion is to create Transaction Pay Codes, but you won’t need to create pay records with them. By doing it this way, you’ll also create consistency between the different records vs a free form description box. This way will also handle any concerns about combining worksheet detail records into payroll transactions.

I love this idea! Definitely agree that the description should be shown on the check stub and within check history. This would definitely clear up questions from employees to what the compensation is for and it would help with historical (look back) questions! ... This would be the best enhancement ever !!!!!

Currently I have an "additional pay" worksheet set up but am not able to enter exactly what that additional pay is for. I too would like something that would carry through to the pay stub AND the to profile on check history.

It would be great if this would flow through to the check stub as well!
