    Hi tinatao

     

    Thanks for describing how the error comes up. This usually happens because of the lock date.

    Please try this:

    • Go to Settings > Business settings.
    • Check that the financial year is 2026/2027.
    • In Lock date, untick Prevent changes before lock date and save.
    • Then try creating the pay again.

    If it’s still not working, I recommend reaching out to our support by creating a ticket in My Account or connecting with our live chat team through MOCA, our virtual assistant.
