At the beginning of each new year users will want to update the default pay period in OMS. The reason this is important is that OMS will use the default pay period when displaying allowance amounts onscreen and also be the default rates used in reports. Until the OMS users update a pay period to the new one, they will have to select the correct pay period every time they run an allowance report. 

Once the pay period is updated

Step-by-step guide



  1. Open Settings>Weekly Allowances

  2. Locate the field "Current Period".

     

  3. Click the year to see a list of available pay periods to choose from.

  4. Select the appropriate pay period you want to be the default for OMS.

  5. Click the "Save" button.

  6. Job well done!

 

If the pay period you need is not listed in the "Current Period" dropdown then it must first be created. Click here to see how!
