To amend an employees pay

The deductions and payments you enter make up the employee's gross and net pay. These stay in place each period until you change them. To understand the option you have, read Enter employees pay.

If the employee isn’t due any money in the current pay run select the Exclude Employee checkbox. If you don't choose the Exclude Employee option, the system can calculate a tax rebate. This is because it assumes the employee worked but earned nothing.

NOTE:

If the Exclude Employee options isn't available, a correction in the employee payment page is the cause, For more information, read Understanding payroll corrections

Change an employee's pension details

You can fully manage an employees pension from this window. Depending on their current pension status, you’ll see different options.

To make any changes, read Check or edit an employee’s pension contribution.

Add a payslip message
