# Include No-Show and Late Cancel Clients in Payroll Calculations

Overview

Many businesses use **session attendance** to determine instructor commissions. In some cases, clients who **no-show** or **late cancel** should still be included in payroll calculations. With this feature, you can now **customize your payroll settings** to reflect your studio's compensation policy—whether you want to pay instructors for no-shows, late cancellations, or only attended sessions.

This guide explains how to enable these options and how the updated Payroll Report displays the data.

---

Prerequisites

- Admin access to **Core**
- Access to **Edit Profile \> Payroll** settings
- Instructors must be assigned to sessions for the report to populate

---

1. Log in to Core
2. Navigate to **Edit Profile \> Payroll**
3. Check the boxes for:

     - **No-Show**
     - **Late Cancel**
     - **Booked** (total session registrations)

### Breakdown of Columns

| **Column** | **Description** |
| --- | --- |
| Attended | Total clients who attended the session |
| No-Show | Clients who booked but did not attend |
| Late Cancel | Clients who canceled within the late cancel window (if applicable to your setup) |
| Booked | Total number of clients booked (includes all of the above) |

> Tip: This breakdown allows for accurate commission calculations based on your studio’s policies.

---

Expected Outcome

With these settings enabled, instructors’ payroll reports will reflect **all relevant session activity**, including clients who booked but didn’t show or canceled late—ensuring instructors are compensated appropriately based on your internal rules.

---

FAQs

**Q: Will No-Show and Late Cancel clients affect my revenue reports?**

A: No. This only impacts **payroll reporting**. Revenue-related data is tracked separately.

**Q: Can I enable only one of the two options (e.g., Late Cancel but not No-Show)?**

A: Yes. You can choose either or both, depending on your studio's payroll policy.

**Q: Do these settings apply retroactively?**

A: They apply to any payroll reports **generated after the settings are enabled**. They will affect past sessions if those sessions fall within your selected report date range.
