Rapid! EWA FAQ
The below FAQ includes important information for employees utilizing Rapid! EWA.

Applying Adjustments and Completing Payroll
Once an employee utilizes Rapid! EWA, an adjustment file is generated by Rapid! and is sent to TempWorks to apply the "RapidEWA" adjustments to the respective employee record.

The adjustments from the file will determine the lump sum that will be deducted from the respective employees check once payroll is completed within Enterprise.
Once the adjustments are applied to the respective employee records utilizing Rapid! EWA, payroll is able to be completed.
*Note* Every time an employee utilizes EWA, a new adjustment file is sent from Rapid! during that pay period. Therefore, new adjustments are applied to the employee record and previously paid adjustments are marked as "inactive".
*Note* Rapid! EWA does not support the use of units within timecards.
For example, if an employee has a timecard with both hours and units, Rapid! EWA will apply only to the hours within the timecard and not the units.
*Note* When creating the transactions during payroll, you may receive the following warning:

This warning is received if the payroll run is started before the payroll cutoff date. This will not prevent you from continuing the payroll run.
Reviewing Adjustments
Once payroll has been completed and adjustment amounts have been deducted from the employee's paycheck, adjustments are able to be reviewed from within the "Employee Adjustments" report along with reporting directly within the Rapid! Portal.
