The problem it solves: When running payroll reports across multiple pay groups — weekly, monthly, bi-weekly — there was no immediate way to confirm which pay group a report belonged to without reading through the data itself. For teams managing several concurrent payroll cycles, this added unnecessary verification steps, especially when reviewing or sharing exported reports.
What we built: HR Blizz now includes a Pay Group field in the headers of all system default reports and GLType reports. The field dynamically reflects the pay group — or groups — associated with the payroll run it was generated from, and appears consistently across every output format.
What this means for your team
Identify the pay group tied to any report instantly
at the top of the page, before reading a single line of data
Multi-pay-group runs display all associated groups
clearly, listed together (e.g., Monthly Payroll, Weekly Payroll) — no ambiguity when a report spans more than one cycle
The pay group header appears identically
whether you are viewing on-screen or exporting to Excel or PDF — your exported reports carry the same clarity as what you see in the system
Auto-enabled: No configuration or setup required. The Pay Group field is now visible in all impacted reports for all HR Blizz users.
Works well with: Mandatory Pay Group Assignment Controls — ensuring employees are correctly mapped to pay groups means your report headers will always reflect accurate, complete pay group information.
