For paying somebody who was missed — a hire who wasn't onboarded before payday, say. Pick the week they actually worked and the date you'll actually pay them. It starts empty: you add only the crews you mean, and each one gets its own link for its lead.
Unspent budget from this crew's other pay periods. Carrying it adds it to this sheet's budget for the lead to assign, and takes it off the sheet it came from so it can't be paid twice. Nothing on the paid period changes.
The sheet is created empty — nobody is on it until you or the lead adds them. That is deliberate: this run exists to pay the people who were missed, not the whole crew again.
This pay period is closed and has already been paid. Opening a late entry reopens only this crew's sheet so you can enter their jobs and hours — every other crew stays locked. When you are done, approve it and use Export late entries, which produces a CSV containing only the people on late sheets.
Leave "Date stopped" blank while it's still going.
Re-spreads the remaining balance over future pay periods. Already-deducted checks are untouched.
Manual rates survive the nightly Prism sync. Leave blank + save to clear the manual rate so Prism can repopulate it (once pay-rate visibility is granted).
Match each person to an employee, or leave "Add by name". Confirming replaces this crew's roster + hours with the sheet and marks it submitted.
