OffCycleFlow

Guided flow to create and run a bonus or correction payroll.

Remarks

Guides the user through configuring pay period dates, selecting a reason, choosing employees, and setting deduction and tax withholding preferences, then transitions into the standard payroll execution experience (configuration, overview, submission, receipts). All off-cycle payroll types share the same execution steps as regular payrolls — only the creation step differs.

Example

App.tsx

import { Payroll, type EventType } from '@gusto/embedded-react-sdk'

function MyApp() {
  return (
    <Payroll.OffCycleFlow
      companyId="a007e1ab-3595-43c2-ab4b-af7a5af2e365"
      onEvent={(eventType: EventType) => {
        if (eventType === 'runPayroll/submitted') {
          // Payroll submitted — navigate to your next screen
        }
      }}
    />
  )
}

OffCycleFlowProps

Props for OffCycleFlow.

Property	Type	Description
companyId	string	The associated company identifier.
onEvent	OnEventType<EventType, unknown>	Callback invoked when the flow emits an event. See the events table on OffCycleFlow.
payrollType?	OffCycleReason	Optional pre-selected off-cycle reason. When provided, the creation form starts with this reason selected.
withReimbursements?	boolean	Optional flag to show/hide reimbursement fields throughout the flow. Defaults to true.

Events

Event	Description	Data
breadcrumb/navigate	User navigates via the flow breadcrumb header	{ key: string }
offCycle/created	Off-cycle payroll has been created and the flow transitions to execution	{ payrollUuid: string }

Once the flow transitions to execution, all standard run-payroll events are emitted (e.g. runPayroll/calculated, runPayroll/submitted, runPayroll/processed).

Sub-components

Component	Description
OffCycleCreation	Creation form for off-cycle (bonus or correction) payrolls.
PayrollExecutionFlow	Guided flow to configure, review, and submit a single payroll.

Step flow

The flow opens on the creation step, where the off-cycle payroll is configured (pay period dates, reason, employees, deductions, and tax withholding). Once created, it hands off to the shared PayrollExecutionFlow for configuration, overview, submission, and receipts.

The breadcrumb header lets the user navigate from execution back to the creation step (breadcrumb/navigate with key: 'createOffCyclePayroll'). Selecting Save & exit during execution emits payroll/saveAndExit, which the flow does not handle internally — it surfaces on onEvent to signal that the flow has been exited.

Off-cycle reasons

The creation step supports two off-cycle reasons, each seeding different deduction and withholding defaults. Changing the reason updates these defaults automatically.

Reason	Use	Default deductions	Default withholding
Bonus	Pay a bonus, gift, or commission	Skip regular deductions	Supplemental rate
Correction	Run a correction payment outside the schedule	Include regular deductions	Regular rate

When deductions are skipped, all regular deductions and contributions are blocked except 401(k); taxes are always included regardless of the selection.
