Pay Groups are optional categories used to group employees for payroll purposes.
If no values are defined in this section, then the Pay Group drop-down menu for an Employee's Demographic Information screen will have a "Not Assigned" option.
If your Employee Data Import includes a field for "Pay Group", then you must define the Pay Groups from the Pay Groups page before importing your data from Data > Imports.
