How do I report on Gross Pay Totals by grouping the headings?

The standard reporting in reports such as Gross to Net will total gross pay as determined by Reporting Groups that are defined at setup e.g. if you want to have a number of overtime elements that you wish to be amalgamated into one total then you could create a Reporting Group called Overtime and attach to this group the elements of overtime.

Reporting Groups

1. Go to Cintra iQ: Payroll> Payroll Setup> Adjustments> Reporting Groups. You will be presented with the following window form:

Depending on which Reporting Group that you are working on there will be a list of types of Headings. The above Heading types relate to Payment Heading Groups. By expanding each of the Headings in each Group you will see which Heading is reported in which Reporting Group.

3. Type in a name e.g. Overtime and in this case leave the default Reporting Group. Type as Payment Heading Group. Click on OK.

Map Headings to Reporting Group

Payments Group.

1. Click on the Payments Group in the top left pane:

Before you finish in this form you should ensure that there are NO unmapped headings.
Click OK to close the form.
