Administrators often ask about the difference between generating and regenerating payslips in HRStop. The two processes serve different purposes.
Generating Payslips
- Happens after payroll is processed for the first time.
- Creates payslips with all salary calculations, deductions, and contributions.
- Required whenever payroll is finalized or reprocessed after deletion.
- Refer to: Publishing and Generating Payslips.
Regenerating Payslips
- Used after payslips are already generated, when only cosmetic or non-salary updates are needed.
- Does not change salary figures or recalculate payroll.
- Useful for changes such as company name, logo, address, or additional header/footer fields.
- Refer to: Regenerating Payslips.
Quick Rule:
- For salary computation and first-time release → Generate.
- For branding, formatting, or non-salary updates → Regenerate.
