How do I adjust normal salary payments to accommodate statutory paternity pay?

Hello,

You will need to adjust their salary within their employee settings. Go to your employee list, select the employee, go to Payment & Deductions and enter the figure (salary-SPP) within the Total per period box. You will then change this back to the original salary amount once their SPP has ended.

Thanks,

Hello martin15,

Are you using QuickBooks Payroll or Paysuite? You can check this by going to the employees tab, once there 'Powered by PaySuite' will display along the top if you are using PaySuite.

Thanks,

It's PaySuite

Hello martin15,

And to clarify, would you like the system to pay the employee their paternity pay alone, without their usual salary?

Thanks,

Hi Talia

I would like them to receive their usual monthly salary so I am guessing just need to deduct the SPP amount to ensure they are no worse or better off than usual.

Thank you

Thanks for this - would another way be to do a minus salary adjustment for the month equivalent to the SPP amount?

Hello,

Yes, you could do it this way if you would like - however this will then show on the payslip as a deduction.

Thanks,
