Hi,

As mentioned above you can find information searching around the web, but the most important for you is to understand the difference between payroll area and other concepts you mention. To payscale, payscale type, payscale area you can give them different utilities, but the PAYROLL AREA is what you are going to use to group the employees that are getting paid on the same dates with the same period. For example if you have one group of employees that get paid monthly and every 30th of the month they will get to one payroll area and if you have one group of employees getting weekly and every monday the would go to another payroll area.

This is the most important, but you can keep looking on the web, and come back with more specific questions.

Kind Regards,

Edoardo

Thank you Edoardo,

I could understand payroll area before but I had some problems in payscale type and pay scale area that now is some more clear for me. may be it is because I didn't see it's usage before and couldn't understand it well.
