__Payrolls__ may be created and maintained in the Define Payrolls (IPPR) form. Payrolls define the pay frequency for various groups of employees. Separate Payrolls are defined for each pay frequency in which a group of employees are paid. This means that employees who are paid at different times will have separate payroll codes. E.G. employees paid every week; employees paid every two weeks. Employees who have the same pay frequency, pay dates, and payroll bank will belong to the same payroll and have the same payroll code.
