Configuring Electronic Pay Stubs

Electronic pay stubs enable employees to receive their pay stubs electronically through Employee Portal (EP) instead of in a paper format. For employees setting up their direct deposit in Onboarding, the pay stub format options are dependent on PrismHR configuration.

The state rules regarding electronic pay stubs are not pre‑configured and must be set up in PrismHR on the State Rules form.

To open State Rules:

1. Click Back Office.
2. From System|Change select States Rules. The State Rules form opens.
3. In the State Rules panel, see Electronic Pay Stubs Allowed.
