Export payroll reminders to your calendar

Set up reminders and keep track of your payroll schedule by exporting payroll dates to your calendar app. Wave does not have a feature to automate running your payrolls. All payrolls need to be manually approved.

To add all your important payroll dates to your personal calendar:

1. On the left-side menu, click Payroll > Run Payroll.
2. At the top right, click Payroll Setup.
3. Under the Business tab, next to Pay schedule, click Edit schedule.
4. Click Export to calendar and download the ICS file onto your device.
5. Once downloaded, open your email server’s calendar and import the file.

You can add events about approval deadlines, paydays, and pay periods for your payroll to your personal calendar, on top of the already automated email that reminds you to run your payroll—a helpful way to keep your payroll organized.
