The Daily Payroll Summary provides a property-wide summary of paid hours and standard hours, and the variance between the two in three categories: Today, Payroll Period-to-Date and Month-to-Date. This report summarizes the use of hours, as related to established task standards, by labor category, department, division and total property. It also sums data by payroll period and month-to-date hours to help you in long range labor evaluation and strategizing. The report can be run to show dollars or hours. The dollars are calculated using the average wage input during job configuration.
