  ###### Can my workers distribute their direct deposit payments between multiple bank accounts?

  Yes, workers can split their direct deposit payments between up to 3 bank accounts. Direct deposit payments can be split based on a percentage (%) or a fixed dollar amount ($).

  When workers complete their [email invitation](/learn/signing-up-for-payroll-as-a-worker/) to sign up for Payroll Processing, they can enter the details for each bank account they want to use.

  If you would like to update a worker's direct deposit details on their behalf, go to** Apps > Staff Members > Compensation > Access payroll setup**. Select **Edit** next to **Pay distributions**.

  Select **Split pay** and specify the details for each bank account to use.

  ###### How do I set up benefit calculations and time off?

  After [signing up for Payroll Processing](/learn/signing-up-for-payroll-processing/), you can set up benefit calculations and time off policies for your workers.

  When adding benefit calculations, you can set up calculations for:

  - Retirement benefits such as a 401(k) or Roth 401(k)

  - Health benefits such as medical, dental, and vision insurance

  When adding time off, you can set up policies for paid time off (PTO) and unpaid time off. Time off policies are useful for things like vacation or sick time.

  To set up benefit calculations and time off policies, open the **Settings** app and select** Business Setup > Payroll > Account settings**. If you have multiple payroll accounts, select **Manage account > Account settings**.

  Select **Edit** next to **Benefits** or **Time off**.

  After setting up benefits and time off, you can assign the policies to each staff member by going to** Apps > Staff Members > Compensation > Access payroll setup**.

  The system will calculate the amount for each benefit so that it is subtracted from the worker’s net pay, but the amount will not be debited from the employer. As the employer, you must review all benefit calculations and send the funds to the appropriate agencies.

  ###### How do I run an off-cycle payroll?

  If you need to run payroll for an off-cycle pay period, open the **Payroll** app and select **Options > Run off-cycle payroll**.

  When running an off-cycle payroll, you can specify the details of the off-cycle payroll run, including the staff members and time period.

  If you pay a worker through an off-cycle payroll and then run a regular payroll that includes the same dates, the worker will **not** be paid twice for those dates. The worker will only be paid for any dates that were not already paid through the off-cycle payroll.
