How to Set Payroll Reminders

Payroll reminders help you stay on top of upcoming payroll deadlines by sending an email notification before payroll is due. In COUNT, you can choose how many days before the deadline you would like to receive the reminder and specify the email address where the notification should be sent.

Step 1: Go to Payroll Settings

1. From the left-hand navigation menu, click Payroll.
2. Select Pay Runs.
3. Click Settings in the top-right corner of the Payroll dashboard.

Step 2: Open Notification Settings

1. From the Payroll Settings page, click the Notifications tab.
2. Locate the Payroll Deadline Reminders section.
3. Turn on the Payroll Deadline Reminders toggle.
4. Complete the following fields:

• Days Before Deadline: Enter the number of days before the payroll deadline that you would like to receive the reminder.

ProTip: Set your reminder several days before the payroll deadline to give yourself enough time to review employee hours, earnings, deductions, and any other payroll information before submitting your pay run.
