Automated SurePayroll Run Cutoff Reminders

Every Monday, WebRun opens SurePayroll, checks the upcoming payroll run cutoff, adds an event to Google Calendar, and posts a reminder to Microsoft Teams so the owner reviews hours and pay before the run submits.

In short

How do I get reminded before SurePayroll runs payroll?

WebRun checks SurePayroll every Monday for the upcoming run cutoff, adds it to Google Calendar, and posts a reminder to Microsoft Teams listing anything flagged for a second look. It never submits the run itself, so you always review and approve the final numbers in SurePayroll before the cutoff passes.

  • Payroll cutoffs never get missed
  • Unusual pay changes get flagged before you approve
  • A shared calendar keeps the cutoff visible to the whole team

Questions, answered

Does WebRun submit the payroll run?

No. WebRun only tracks the cutoff and reminds you to review. Submitting the run always happens in SurePayroll, by a human.

What counts as flagged?

Any hours or pay change that looks unusual compared to the prior run, so you see it before the cutoff instead of after.

Does it change anyone's pay?

No, it only reads hours and pay already entered in SurePayroll. It never edits pay rates or hours.
