HI @mereteL,

Thanks for your response.

Yes, it is possible to process payroll four days late when you return to the office. You will need to backdate each of these pay runs. When reporting these to the ATO, please ensure you are selecting the "reported as a new pay run" option. This is important for maintaining accurate records and compliance with ATO guidelines. For more information, please refer to this Help article, Reporting past-dated pays for Single Touch Payroll.

Thank you for taking the time to answer, but i can't pay in advance. I would be 4 days late doing the payroll.

Is that possible?

Just make sure to follow the standard payroll procedure, also don't forget to adjust the payment date to match when you intend to make the payment.
