During processing of a pay, I sometimes need to add a category that the employee may have not needed before. I can understand not being able to delete a category from a card whilst a pay is being processed but we need to be able to add please :smileyhappy:
'Add payroll category whilst processing pay"
You cant even change it if you go out of payroll and save that payment so you can change a catagory and still continue to do the pays altogether. Please implement this suggestion.
I find it frustrating coming from v19 that you can't add a payroll category to an employee that is being used within a pay.
Could this functionality please be added soon?
It would be handy is you were able to add a payroll catagory, eg holiday pay, to an employees card at the time of processing payroll.
I have been able to do this in the 19.10 version before and it is very frustating that you are not able to do this in the 2014.4 version. the only way I was able to do this is to finalise the payroll and go back in to add this in.
We are using 2014.4 and have the Add Payroll Category window but it won't let us add a brand new payroll category. We often have to add site allowances after we have started the payroll. We have tried adding the site allowance through another user and it shows up on the employee's wages list in their card but doesn't come up on their active payroll window nor does it show up on the Add Payroll category list. The only way we have been able to get around this is to process all the completed pays and go back in to do a separate run for the employee with the new site allowance. Not a very efficient way to do it, I know, but it works. Could we please have the option to add a brand new payroll category? We used to be able to do it in AccountRight V19.10. Thank you
Thanks for your feedback Leaph. The changes we've implemented allow you to use an existing payroll category not assigned to that employee when processing a payroll. If you'd like the ability to create a new payroll category while processing pay and add it permanently to the employee card, I recommend that you raise a new idea for this. This will allow other users to vote for your idea and for us to track how popular this idea is.
