Here you select the current pay date that you closed in Pay Resources and the screen displays the Pay Group and cutoff date associated with the pay date selected \u2014 so you can double-check that you selected the correct pay date.<\/p>\n<p>The results list all resources to be paid in the current payroll along with the amounts to be paid. You can deselect any resource listed whom you do not want to pay at this time. You can click any resource to view their details \u2014 for example to check that they have an email address in their listing.<\/p>\n<p>You can sort your results in the grid by one or more columns in ascending or descending order (but when you exit the function RB will revert back to the default order). Export the list as an <em>Excel<\/em> spreadsheet or\u00a0a CSV (comma-separated values) file to save, print, share, or use in other applications.<\/p>\n<h2>Generate a report for your records<\/h2>\n<p>After reviewing the on-screen results, you can generate the report for your records: The report lists each invoice (to be paid for the specified payroll) grouped and subtotaled by resource with each resource starting on a new page. The last page of the report lists the grand total amount for all resources included in the report.<\/p>\n<p>You can search for a word or phrase in the onscreen report. RB will highlight all instances of your searched word\/phrase in the report and list them in a scroll box along with the page number where they occur. Export the report in a variety of formats to save and\/or edit in another application, or print it.<\/p>\n<p>After making a final copy of the Resource Pay Statements report for the office, send resources their pay statements from\u00a0the same results list.<\/p>\n<h2>Provide pay statements in the format resources want<\/h2>\n<p>You can email resources their pay statements or print and mail\/hand out the statements along with their paychecks. If you will email some pay statements and print others, you will need to send pay statements in 2 separate batches. And you probably don\u2019t have to produce pay statements for any resources that are not people \u2014 such as your conference rooms.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to having the email\/print option for pay statements you can also choose to send either summary or detailed pay statements. Summary statements only include invoice totals. Detailed pay statements break down invoice totals to include their service items\u2019 details (number of units, pay rate, and subtotal).<\/p>\n<h3>Email<\/h3>\n<p>To email statements you select which resources will receive the emailed statements, then select which version \u2014 summary or detailed \u2014 the selected resources will receive. Before sending the statements you can preview and\/or edit each pay statement email, change the sender, and attach additional files. Or if you want to make global changes to the pay statement email template update it in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omtiblog.com\/reporterbase101\/modules\/setup\/set-preferences-for-paying-resources\/\">System Preferences<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>When the statements have been emailed RB notes the outcome for each resource in the Result column. Any statement that failed to send displays the results in red so you can easily see what is wrong. RB also generates an automatic entry in each resource\u2019s Notes Log recording the date, time, and user who sent the email. And RB9 records the emails sent in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omtiblog.com\/reporterbase101\/modules\/tools\/view-emails-sent-from-within-rb9\/\">Email Log<\/a> function in Tools so you can refer back to them later.<\/p>\n<h3>Print<\/h3>\n<p>If you want to give resources their pay statements with their pay checks select which resources will receive the printed statements, then print out the static report in either summary or detailed form.<\/p>\n<h3>Online<\/h3>\n<p>Save time and money with online statements. If you have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omtiblog.com\/reporterbase101\/plug-ins\/online-offices-for-clients-reporters-more\/\">RB Connect<\/a>, resources can view their pay statements (current and past) online \u2014 eliminating the need to print or email statements.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TL;DR: After closing payroll send resources their pay statements via email or by printing and handing out\/sending as snail mail. Plus archive a final copy for your records.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4>RB concepts in this lesson<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Cutoff Date:<\/strong> Last date for invoices to be included in a pay date.
