I have paid someone the wrong rate how do I do a new payrun to adjust it

Hi heavydieselsupp,

 

Thanks for posting in the Community!

 

You can unlock and re-finalise the pay run to make corrections. As long as there is no super payment processed for the pay run affected, we can unlock and refinalise it. Here's how to:

 

  1. Click on the Pay runs tab.
  2. Locate and click the pay run, and click on Pay Run Actions.
  3. Click on Unlock.
  4. Enter a Comment and then select on Unlock.

 

Once done, make the necessary corrections. Double check the figures and then Finalise the payrun when ready. 

 

Then, we need to submit an updated pay event to update the ATO. Here's how to:

 

  1. Click on the Payroll tab.
  2. Click on Reports, and click on Single Touch Payroll.
  3. Select Create update event.
  4. Select the appropriate Financial year and Pay schedule, then select Create.

That's it. You have now submitted the changes to the ATO.

 

If there's super payments processed on the pay run. We can create an ad-hoc pay run to make the correction. You can create a new pay schedule and name it ad-hoc, or use the same pay schedule you are using. 

 

To create the pay schedule:

 

  1. Select Payroll, then select Payroll Settings.
  2. Select Pay Schedules under Pay Run Settings.
  3. Select Add on the right side of the screen.
  4. In the Name field, enter Ad hoc. In the Frequency dropdown, select the same frequency as your regular pay schedule.
  5. Select Save.

You can start using the ad hoc pay schedule to create and finalise ad hoc pay runs:

 

  1. Select Payroll, then select New Pay Run.
  2. Select the pay period and pay date for the pay run (this is usually in line with your existing pay period and date pay run is paid).
  3. Select Manually add employees to this pay run, then select Create.
  4. Select Pay Run Actions, then select Add employees and add the employees you want to make adjustments for.
