Advanced Payroll employer pension contribution

bjhallam · ‎November 29, 2020

We applied a pay increase in October, backdated to April. Unfortunately I was not aware that backpay was not automatically set up for pension contributions, as it was with Paysuite, so contributions were not calculated on the backpay lump sums. I did not realise this until after November salaries were paid and I now need to make these contributions from December salaries. I have been able to make a deduction of net employee pension contributions, but cannot find a way of making the employer contributions. How do I do that? Also, we have one member of staff whose pension contributions are "relief at source at source" not net. How do I make her contribution? There is no pension relief at source option on the dropdown for deductions.
