You can count on me to assist you with handling employees leaving during the payroll month. I'll provide a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to ensure you manage this process smoothly and accurately, Forbes.

Then, run the final payroll and send Full Payment Submission (FPS). The P45 form will be available in the Documents tab of the employee's profile afterward.
Finally, give the employee their P45.
