What does the rollback function do?
Description

When you need to make a correction for a few employees, you might prefer to use the rollback function.

This has the benefit of leaving your other employees' payment information as it is, so their payments remain correct.


What the rollback does

When you run a rollback, the software resets the following values to what they were before the period you roll back to:

  • Change of pay frequency
  • Tax code
  • National Insurance (NI) category
  • Leaving date
  • Year to date (YTD) values 
  • History
  • Diary entries
  • Nominal link posting date
  • Pension schemes

You can then set your process date back to the period you rolled back, and enter new payments.

Statutory payments

If you rollback an employee who's receiving statutory parental payments, check the dates in their Absence Diary are correct. This is because you can enter them in arrears, whereas a rollback only clears dates to the week you select.

When you rollback an employee who's receiving statutory sick pay (SSP), ▼ check their weeks paid value is correct before you enter new payments. 

  1. Double-click the relevant employee on your employee list.
  2. Go to the Absence tab, then select the S.S.P. button.
  3. Go to the Previous PIW tab and check the Accrued weeks SSP paid value is correct.
    • If not, amend the details in this tab so they're correct
    • If the value is already correct, don't make any changes
  4. When you're finished, select OK.
  5. Select Save then Close
