When I process payroll on a semi-monthly schedule for February, the system limits the pay period to 14 days. I would like to capture that actual number of days the employee worked, for example: February 1 to February 15, with a payout date of February 20. However, the system does not allow this because of the 14-day limitation.
February is a unique month. I believe the system calculates the number of days in the month and divides it by two for semi-monthly payments, which results in a 14-day limit. However, it would be preferable if the monthly period defaulted to a minimum of 30 days, to avoid such error.
In this case, the employee worked from February 1 to February 15, which totals 15 days. Due to the current limitation, I’m unable to capture all 15 days when I processed the payroll.
I hope you will prioritize this matter, as it is not a feature request but a clear calculation error for February.
