Running Payroll
You can run detailed payroll reports directly with Pike13's built-in tools. This tool calculates the total amount owed to your staff based on their assigned pay rates and confirmed attendance.
⚠️ Important: Payment Processing
Pike13 calculates the data (hours worked, commissions earned), but it does not process the actual funds. You will use the final report generated here to compensate your staff outside of Pike13 according to your preferred third-party payroll provider.
