Important Information
Payment Elections are separated into Payroll and Expense. Payroll represents the Employee’s paycheck. Expense represents reimbursement payments made to the Employee.
Getting Started
- From the Workday Home page, select the Pay application.
- Select Payment Elections.
- In the Payment Elections section, select the Edit button for either Payroll or Expense, depending on the change(s) you want to make.
- Select the Payment type (Direct Deposit or Check) and enter the Account number.
- Select a radio button under Balance / Amount / Percent.
- Only one account can have a Balance distribution. This means whatever amount or percent of funds not already assigned to other accounts will be deposited into the this account.
- Select Amount to assign a flat monetary value to that account (e.g., $500).
- Select Percent to specify a percentage for that account (e.g., 50%).
- Select OK.
Note: If you need to use multiple bank accounts, be sure all accounts are listed in the Accounts section of the page. To add a new account, select the Add button. You may add up to five accounts for the Payroll type, but only one account for Expenses.
This completes the Edit Payment Elections process.
