Monthly Pay Stub - Frequently Asked Questions

Divide the annual salary by 12. For example, a $64,800 annual salary is $5,400 gross per month. Taxes and deductions then come out of that monthly gross to produce net pay.
It depends on the state. Many states set minimum payday frequencies — some require at least semi-monthly pay for hourly or non-exempt workers, while exempt salaried employees can usually be paid monthly. Check your state labor department's payday requirements.
Yes. The template defaults to a flat monthly salary, but you can enable hours and rates in the earnings section if you pay hourly workers on a monthly schedule.
