To update an individual employee’s pay schedule:

1. Go to the Employee's Pay Default Screen.
2. Select the employee whose pay schedule needs to be changed.
3. Choose the desired pay schedule from the dropdown or list.
4. Save the changes.

Important: When changing an employee’s pay schedule, remember that the first pay run after the change may require manual adjustments. This is because the pay run will apply to the full period, which might include a period already paid under the previous schedule. Only the first month/week will require these manual amendments.
