Summary

The Employee Wage Statement Report provides a check-level summary of wages paid to each employee, including gross wages, taxes, deductions, and net pay. It is designed to give employees and back-office staff a clear, concise view of earnings for a given period.

Its standout feature is the ability to filter by SSN or Employee, making it easy to look up individual wage history without running broad queries. The report also supports Date Type flexibility; users can filter by Accounting Period Date or Check Date to align with how their office tracks payroll.

By presenting check-level details alongside employer information and hours worked, the report enables faster payroll verification, employee self-service support, and accurate wage record-keeping.

This report is essential for:

  • Payroll Teams: verifying gross wages, taxes withheld, and net pay for every paycheck issued.

  • HR & Compliance: responding to employee wage inquiries or audit requests using SSN or employee name lookups.

  • Branch Managers: reviewing payroll totals by office and confirming hours worked per check.

By using this report, staffing companies gain full transparency into employee compensation records, enabling accurate payroll audits, faster employee support, and regulatory compliance.
