If a Pay Sequence doesn’t show up (or totals look wrong), run through these quick checks.
Likely causes and quick checks
-
The pay wasn’t fully processed via Process Pay (All Transactions), or it was processed using Changed Transactions only; some reports only include fully processed/closed pays and require them for correct totals.
-
What to check: reprocess as a full pay and confirm the sequence is fully processed. You can check this by reviewing the pay status, if there is a red X it has not been fully processed, a processed pay will show a green tick. If it is not showing as fully processed make sure there are no employee queries active and reprocess:
-
The report is configured to include closed pays only; several standard reports list only closed pay sequences in the selector.
-
What to check: confirm whether the pay is closed or choose a report/setting that includes open pays. You can check the standard Reports Catalogue to review requirements: Standard Reports Catalogue
-
Wrong Period Type selection on the report. If you choose C. Date Range, results are driven by Period End dates of sequences within that range (not actual leave/transaction dates). If you choose Q. Pay Sequence Selection, you must explicitly select the target closed sequence(s).
-
What to check: confirm you picked the intended period type and date range, or select the exact sequence(s).
-
Report settings exclude manual pays.
-
What to check: review the report filters and enable inclusion of manual pays if needed.
-
The Pay Sequences selector includes multiple periods; the indicator “>1” means you’ve added more than one pay, which can hide the result when scanning for a specific sequence.
-
What to check: set the selector count to 1 and pick only the single target pay.
Missing Employees
-
Employee or report-level filters exclude the data. Leaving the Employee field blank includes all employees; filters like Department, Location, or Dimensions can exclude the target pay’s results if mis-set.
-
What to check: clear Employee to blank and review/remove Department/Location/Dimensions filters to ensure the target employees are included
-
A Query used during processing or viewing is too restrictive. When processing, it’s recommended to use a Query aligned to the pay period type; for reports, confirm you’re not filtering employees out unintentionally.
-
What to check: temporarily run the report without a Query (or with a broad, pay-period-aligned Query) and verify the target employees are included.
