Payroll Cutoff Calculator

Enter the payroll cutoff date and how many processing days pass before pay date, in calendar or business days. If the cutoff date itself falls on a weekend or an excluded holiday, payroll closes on the nearest working day before or after it instead.

The pay date is the effective cutoff date plus the processing days, using the same shared addDays/addBusinessDays logic as the Add Business Days To Date Calculator. If that pay date also falls on a weekend or holiday, it shifts the same way.

Business-day mode and the US federal holiday option use the same shared rules as the Notice Period and Business Day Offset calculators, so results stay consistent across DateToolsHQ.
