About correct pay on date for pass payroll

[Mei]

Hi,

I just found that there was an error for the pay on date for monthly payroll process in Dec 2022.  I got a mistake when I enter the pay on date. It should be 31/12/2022 and I input it as 31/1/2023. As this has been submitted already, is there any way to correct it? 

Thank you.

Hi @Mei 

Thank you for your post. You can reverse the employee's pay, then re-enter it with the correct date.

To do this:

1. Go to the Payroll menu and click Pay runs.
2. Click the Date of payment for the pay run containing the pay you need to reverse.
3. Click the name of the Employee whose pay you want to reverse.
4. Click Reverse pay (The details of the pay reversal are shown as a negative pay).
5. Click Record reversal.
6. When prompted to send your payroll information to the ATO, enter your details and click Send to submit the reversal to the ATO.
