The Remote Payroll team will process the changes in payroll, considering 2 important dates:

• Effective date of the change: Changes won’t be applied in payroll until the effective date. You can enter future salary or job title changes without worrying about forgetting to enter the details, or immediate processing.
• Input cut-off: Changes in salary or job title will need to follow the agreed payroll calendar and be entered in the platform by the agreed input cut-off to be processed timely.

For example, if March cut-off date is on March 18, 

• A salary change entered on March 26 and effective date on April 1 will be processed by the payroll team on the first payroll run of April.
• A salary change entered on March 26 and effective date on March 1 will be processed by the payroll team on your first payroll run for April.
