      Set up locations 

      Overview:  

      • Set up locations in Wiise payroll 

      Note: In Wiise ERP, dimensions are used to categorise and track financial data. Locations set up in Wiise payroll can be mapped to these dimensions to ensure that all payroll data is categorised consistently for your financial reporting purposes.    

      Why set up locations? 

      As a business with multiple locations across different regions, each location may have its own employees. A location register helps keep an accurate record of who works where. 

      This feature lets you add new locations, specifying their name and region, and assign them to employees, allowing you to track labor costs by location. You can also edit or delete location details as needed. 

      Note: Employees can be assigned to specific locations, which can later be used to report labor costs for each location. 

      How to set up locations? 

      1. On your Wiise Payroll dashboard, select the Payroll Settings tab. Then, select Locations in the Pay Run Settings section. The Locations page displays.
