I have a problem with sims getting paid twice every hour. I have these hacks.

The ching ching with the money floating upwards happens so fast, is there any way I can generate an error log at that time that would be of any use?
J. M. Pescado:
Hmm. Can't imagine why you'd be getting paid twice an hour, unless you somehow have a duplicate employee controller, or the Merolian Time Manipulator. None of which concerns Business Runs You.

Is it all employees or just one in particular? The reason I ask is that a while ago I noticed that there is an additional ching ching at the bar if you have a non-controllable tending it. It's the same pay that you get if you tend a bar on a non-owned community lot (this functionality was introduced in the first expansion pack as a way of letting students earn a little extra cash) when it usually comes up every 12 sim minutes.
However, because this functionality is supposed to be disabled on an owned community lot, you can get an extra ching which goes straight into the business funds, because it wasn't intended to seek out a specific Sim and pay them instead of the household funds.
Another possibility, with a bar at least, is that you're seeing the customer pay for their drink. Provided your customers aren't lured away by other attractions, a bar can be a good way to make extra money in a place which already charges for entry.

No, the only businesses so far have been retail, it happens on both home and community lots. I emptied all hacks except JM's at one point and it was still happening. It happens to all employees hourly, two lots of the same amount float up.
How do I trigger a log file?
Marvin Kosh:
All you need to do to generate a log is enter debugging mode and shift-click an object on the lot to pop up the Force Error option.
Just pick Cancel when the error message pops up, but take note of the filename that the error log has been saved to - you should find it in My Documents/EA Games/The Sims 2/Logs/ and since it will be the most recent log created, it will have the latest modified timestamp in that directory.
