About Payroll Codes

Payroll codes allow you to enter the wage and salary amounts that different employees earn in the course of employment at your company. As you can have an unlimited number of payroll codes, you can assign one for each job type, one for each department, or simply one for each employee. Payroll codes are also used in ManageMore for keeping track of taxes, deductions, and additions to an employee's pay.
