Overview
There are three ways to run payroll from your Heard account.
Run a regular payroll
We recommend running regular payroll a few times until you become familiar with the process. Then, you can set your preferences to run automatic payroll.
To pay your employees:
- From your Heard account, go to Payroll>Run Payroll.
- Click Run Payroll.
- Enter the number of hours each employee worked (regular, overtime, or double overtime hours). You can also enter bonuses, reimbursements, or additional earnings.
- Review payroll details, including the amount to be credited from your bank account and distributed to employees.
- Click Submit, and your funds will be distributed on the listed date.

Run an off-cycle payroll
To pay an employee outside of your normal payroll schedule:
- From your Heard account, go to Payroll>Run Payroll.
- Click Run Off-Cycle Payroll.
- Enter the period for which you want to pay an employee, along with the payment date and reason for payment.
- Under Gross Pay, enter the number of hours each employee worked (regular, overtime, or double overtime hours). You can also enter bonuses, reimbursements, or additional earnings.
- Review payroll details, including the amount to be credited from your bank account and distributed to employees.
- Click Run Payroll and your funds will be distributed on the listed date.
