Payroll
Correcting Employees wages once you have updated the wages
You might find that after you have updated the wages for the payroll run, new information comes to light and you need to re-run the payroll for that employee – examples could be a change to an Attachment of Earnings etc, missing overtime etc.
Solution
- Back up your data.
- On the Employee List, select the required employee(s).
- Click Tasks, then click Rollback.
- Click Next.
- Check the employee(s) on the list is the one(s) you want to rollback, then click Next.
- Select the earliest pay period that you want to remove.
- If you select the employee’s first pay period, the following message appears ‘You have selected the oldest update. Do you also want to clear the following information?’ with a list of information.
- Click No on the message. Only click Yes if you are certain you need to clear the values listed.
- Click Next then click Finish.
- Click OK.
You can now process your payroll again for the employee(s) that you have rolled back, including any statutory payments you have previously processed.
If you re-run pre-update reports these will only include the employee(s), you have rolled back.
Pension Details
If you have already submitted your pension data and the figures have changes, you will need to let your pension provider know. You will need to contact your provider on how to make this amendment.
