From approved hours to payroll

How approved hours become a payroll run with allowances and lodging, how the cost is allocated to projects, and what goes to Salary.dk.

Last updated 8 August 2026

A payroll run in Staffly is not a fresh round of typing — it collects the hours that were already approved. You find them under Økonomi → Lønkørsler.

What is included

Only approved hours in the period. Hours still waiting for approval are not paid, and that is deliberate: a payroll run must not be able to pay out something nobody has looked at.

Allowances and lodging

Allowances and lodging are calculated for the period and can be recalculated if something has moved. Recalculating also synchronises to Salary.dk.

Allocation to projects

If you work with projects, the payroll run's actual cost can be allocated to them: each employee's salary cost is weighted by approved hours in the period. The allocation does not replace the provisional cost price — project finances show both, and the difference between them.

Note: If the hours change after the allocation has run, Staffly says so. Run it again, or the project numbers show something out of date.

Salary.dk

Payslips and transfers belong to the payroll run, and the payment itself is handled in Salary.dk. See Connect Salary.dk to payroll.

Check before you send

Go for what stands out: an employee with markedly more hours than usual, one with no hours at all, or an employee with transfers but no payslip — Staffly points the last one out itself.
