Pay Period & Cycle

Monthly period end day Monthly cycle runs from the day after this (previous month) through this day of the current month — e.g. 28 means 29th → 28th.

Fortnightly anchor date Any date that starts a Fortnightly period — every other period is counted from this one.

Fortnightly cycle length (days)

Monthly pay date — days after period end Monthly only. E.g. period ends the 27th, offset 1 = pay normally issues the 28th.

Shift pay date off weekends Monthly only — if the resulting pay date (period-end + offset above) falls on a Saturday/Sunday, it moves back to the target weekday below. Fortnightly pay date is always the period's own end date.
