Lock payroll and release payslips for selected employees

Updated on May-2023

In some cases, an employer may want to lock the payroll for most employees but release payslips for only selected employees. This might be necessary if there are outstanding issues with the payroll data for some employees that need to be resolved before their payslips can be released.

The Payroll Release page in the greytHR Admin portal helps you lock/release the payroll for a few employees. The feature is useful when you have to release payroll in cycles or batches.

You can perform the following actions on the Payroll Release page:

  1. Lock/unlock payroll for selected employees.

  2. Publish/unpublish payslip for selected employees.

To view the Payroll Release page, click Payroll > Admin > Payroll Release.

  4. Click Lock Selected/Unlock Selected. The Payroll Release pop-up appears.

    Note: You can click Lock All/Unlock All to lock/unlock payroll for all the employees on the list.
