Maybe a bit of a confusing problem but I'm new to this way of accounting! I've just hired my first employee so I'm setting up a payroll for the first time, employee started working for me on 18/09 but I was still awaiting my employer PAYE number at this point ( I read it would be allowed to file a late payroll due to waiting fort he number) . I've transferred the employee his agreed weekly salary the past three weeks while waiting for the numbers to arrive as he has bills to pay and receives Universal Credit so couldn't be without income, I was under the impression it would be possible to add these as a 'backpay' of sorts, now I cant seem to run a payroll for the dates I need and I got myself in a bit of a pickle! employee hasn't paid tax on the previous weeks as we didn't know what he would owe, can anyone advise me on how to sort this mess and file the payrolls for the previous three weeks (on a weekly basis) could I file a 0.00 for the weeks on payroll and add a lump sum payment or similar to cover wages paid to him? any help greatly appreciated, this is a steep learning curve!
