Pay Details Activity: View Historical Pay Changes

The Pay Details Activity feature provides a complete log of all wage and salary changes made to an employee’s profile since the 7shifts account was created.

This log helps teams track updates, maintain audit visibility, and quickly understand who made pay-related changes and when.

How to Access It:

1. Go to Team > Employees.
2. Select the relevant employee profile.
3. Click on the Wages and payment tab.
4. Scroll to the Pay details Activity section.

What Is Logged?

Each entry in the pay details activity log includes:

• Effective Date – When the new wage takes effect
• Wage Type – Hourly, Weekly Salary, or Annual Salary
• New Wage – The updated pay amount
• Changed By – The Admin or Manager who made the update, or if the update synced from an integrated POS.
• Date Modified – When the change was saved in 7shifts

⚠️ Understanding behavior of Pay Activity Log when Wage-Based Roles is disabled

If your business previously used Wage-based roles and then turned it off, you may see the following:

• Specific wages per role may still be visible in the Activity section, but they are not applied to scheduling or payroll when WBR is disabled.
• The Hourly Wage field may show $0.00 after WBR is disabled, even if role wages are listed in the Pay Activity.

To resolve this:

• Re-enable Wage-Based Roles and confirm each role has the correct wage if you want to use role-based pay rates; or
• Keep WBR off and assign a non-zero base wage to each employee.
