Roll back payroll that has already been finalised?

S-daly · ‎April 14, 2022

Have posted Week 53 as week one of new tax year in error and need to roll it back to correct it? Please help as i am due to process a run today!

Hi S-daly, yes you would rollback and select a different pay date (that falls before the 5th April) to correct this, can we check which version of the payroll you're using, Standard or Advanced, to advise on the specific steps to take?

Thanks S-daly, to rollback, please navigate to payroll > pay runs > click pay period to open, from here, select pay run actions > unlock > pay run actions > Mark all as a late submission and then option H Correction to earlier submission (this will overwrite the existing submission to HMRC so that the payroll is not duplicated for the period) > click finalise pay run - here you'll be able to set the new pay date :)

Hi S-daly What's the pay date you have set for that particular period?

S-daly · ‎April 14, 2022

Date paid is 08.04.22 but the wages are for 26.03.22 - 01.04.22

Hi S-daly The reason that the period is showing as Wk1 is due to the pay date. The pay date would have to be on or before the 5th of April as the 8th of April is classed as Wk1 of the new tax/payroll year

So what do i do to correct it?

Will this not effect the employees P60's?

Can i roll back that week and enter a new pay date? If so how do i do that?

Thanks

So how do i correct it?

Can i roll back that week and re-enter a different day?

Or should i mark as Week 53?

If i can roll back could you tell me how?
