This step is necessary only if the job should have a payment plan other than the default, Begin to End Date. Payment plans can be edited until the employee is submitted to payroll.
Payment plans can only be changed for available, not submitted, jobs.
If an employee doesn't show up in the Employee Payroll Information window, check to see that the employee is enabled and has an approved job/addendum and an approved deduction set.
Note: If you have a group of employees whose jobs should all have the same payment plan, you may be able to use the Mass Payment Plan feature. This action can only be taken on employees with either Submitted or Suspended status who have jobs with Available status. The jobs must also have the same Begin & End dates and be in the same payroll cycle.

Click the Display Name hyperlink, or check the box for the employee whose payment plans you want to edit and click the Detail command in the upper right corner of the window. The Employee Payroll Detail window opens.
