Certified Payroll Report

The Certified Payroll Report computes the regular and overtime hours (on a day-by-day basis) by employee for any certified job.

Employee earnings, taxes, union deductions, and other deductions are also listed per the certification reporting requirements. This report is typically required for certified jobs (for example, public works).

This report can be printed only for certified jobs that have been entered in either Pre-Time Card or Time Card Entry, transferred through Time Card Entry in a pay cycle, then updated to Time Card History. Jobs are marked as certified or non-certified in the Job Cost > Job File Maintenance > Properties window. This report prints in job number sequence. Within each job, employees are listed in sequence by employee code.

The Certified Payroll Report uses the full wage code description. The check number is shown on the report and a new line is printed for each check. The total certified union add-ons display in the Benefits field on every line for a particular job and check.

This report contains an expanded version that lists deductions, other job pay and holiday hours. The start screen prompts for a report format:
  • Standard version
  • Expanded version
  • Expanded version with employer union fringe totals
Important: If employees appear erroneously on the Certified Payroll Report, use the Employee Certified History task located in the Payroll > Period End folder to resolve the issue. In this screen, you may edit the Certified checkbox as well as the work date. To set the time card certified box for an employee to No for future payroll cycles, clear the Certified checkbox in Employees.
