On Advanced Payroll, how do I set up a pension deduction as a fixed monthly amount (it only seems to cater for percentages)?

Hi there, @michael-byrne. 

Thank you for reaching out to the Community. Let me help you sort this out. First you need to set up deduction categories. Let me guide you how: 

1. Click Payroll Settings, then Deduction Categories.
2. To add a new deduction category, select Add. There will already be two deduction categories for you (Pre-Tax Deduction and Post-Tax Deduction). You can edit any of these by selecting the name of the deduction category.
3. Enter a name for the deduction category.
4. Press whether it will be a pre tax or post tax deduction.
5. Add an external ID and select the NMW/NLW Calculation Impact as required.
6. Hit Save. 

Once you have setup your deduction categories, they will now be accessible to be assigned to employees.  

You can check out this link on how to setting up an indefinitely recurring deduction: Setting up deductions in QuickBooks Online Advanced Payroll. 

Just in case, for your reference if you want to know more about QuickBooks Advanced Payroll: QBO Advanced Payroll. 

Should you have any other concerns or questions about deduction, you can always find me here. I'm just one comment away.

What if the employee fixed amount is zero, but the employer amount is £200?

Thanks in advance

Thanks John.

So I do this every payrun for the employees that pay a fixed amount per month ? and also for employees where the employer pays a fixed amount?

Not nice if thats the case! :(

Thanks,

So could I setup this HMRC adjustment in the pay run inclusions rather then manually do each run (and possibly forget :-))

Thanks for checking.
