Payroll

[WalesTrucks]

Version 19 would allow you to drill into an employee and add additional wages categories whilst in the middle of payroll.  Version 2018 won't allow it.  That takes up a lot of time to finish payroll, change the card, and then go back in for another payroll.  I can understand that the rate of pay is protected but what if an employee does something completely out of the ordinary?  He became eligible for LSL yesterday and you only find out whilst doing payroll.  He would not have had that wages category ticked.  Makes more sense to tick a wages category only when you need it and best to keep them unticked so that there are not too many categories to go through with each pay, that makes is easier to pick the wrong category and make a mistake.

Hi @WalesTrucks,

Welcome to the MYOB Community Forum, I hope you find it a great source of information.

In AccountRight 2017 & 2018, you are able to add a Payroll Category to an Employee's Pay whilst processing the pay run, which includes a "Save changes for future pay runs" button so that it adds this category to their Pays.

You can read on how to do this by view this online help article: Review employee pays before recording them (click here)

Please let us know how you go.

Cheers,

Super, that method actually works better than Version 19!
