How to use the Payroll Sync Dashboard

With GoCo, you can keep your existing payroll system! All changes made in GoCo can be synced to that system as well. Keep reading to learn how to manage the Payroll Sync Dashboard

Payroll Sync consolidates all the changes that are made in GoCo that also need to be updated in payroll. When you access the dashboard, you will see the different pay periods and all the updates that became effective during a specific payroll cycle.
A few examples of some changes that you will see on your dashboard are benefit deduction changes, salary changes, and even demographic changes.
 

To find your payroll sync dashboard, simply click "View" on the Payroll Sync card from the company dashboard.

Note: Changes need to be synced each payroll before payroll is run or the items remain open and will run into the next payroll cycle.
