The Payroll Distribution report provides detail of payroll transactions to assist with the reconciliation of department and project statements. The "Payroll Distribution Report within Dept RIT" sorts by department and provides payroll detail by employee for each pay period included in the requested date range. The "Payroll Distribution Report within Project RIT" provides the same information but sorts by project which makes it easier to use for reconciling grant and other project statements.

To gain access to the Payroll Distribution reports fill out a General Ledger Security Access form and return it to Accounting for processing. When completing this form, note in the  check off the "RIT - GL - Reporting, Inquiry & Payroll" responsibility and list the department numbers you want to access. The head of each of the departments listed must approve the form in order for you to be given access to that department's payroll detail.
