When you enable Payroll on AutoPilot®, your payroll will automatically process one day before your payroll deadline—giving you 24 hours to make changes or cancel it before it runs.
Prefer to run payroll manually? Simply turn off Payroll on AutoPilot® at any time.
Important Reminders
AutoPilot is not available for US contractors.
To pay contractors, submit payments manually and select a future payment date.
AutoPilot uses your company’s default bank account.
If this needs to change, update your bank account settings beforehand.
Certain actions will automatically disable AutoPilot.
Example: If a team member switches from direct deposit to paper check, AutoPilot will be turned off for everyone on that pay schedule.
Before Payroll on AutoPilot® Runs
Make sure everything is in place before AutoPilot processes payroll:
Commission-only employees: Enter commissions before payroll runs; these employees have a $0 salary until commissions are reported.
Expenses: Review and approve all relevant expense reports at least one day before your payroll deadline.
How to Turn Payroll on AutoPilot® On or Off
To enable AutoPilot:
Ensure all employees on the schedule are set up with direct deposit.
For hourly workers, set their default hours—AutoPilot won’t run without them.
