New Hire - Payroll Tab

SOLVED

My colleague and I just entered two new employees (separately) and both are having this issue. We both went through the new hire process with no issues. After finishing the process, we clicked on the payroll tab only to get a pop-up message that said "Employee not found in payroll" with no information in the tabs available and some tabs even greyed out (like EFT). Neither of us have ever had this issue even though we have both been entering new hires into HRMS for years. Any thoughts on what could be causing this and how to correct it?
