Field Description - Period End Date

The Period End Date is the last day of the payroll period.  For example, if the pay period is one week long and ends on Saturday, then the Period End Date is Saturday's date.  You must enter the Period End Date for each Run Code for the Payroll Run during the Edit Payroll Check Dates prompt.  The prompt appears only once for each Run Code during the Payroll Run (either during Permanent Pay Transfer or during Payroll Check Entry).

Note:  Usually the Period End Date falls a few days before the Check Date.

Format:  Date (MM/DD/CCYY).  Slashes are optional.
