It may be necessary to generate a payment for an employee after they have been terminated. The following information allows a terminated employee to be selected in a transaction, which can then be processed as per normal.
Note: Once this transaction has been entered and finalised, it may be necessary to perform an STP Update to report the amended earnings to the Australian Taxation Office. Also consider whether superannuation needs to be included in the transaction. If so, remove the Terminated Date from the Super Fund in the employee's record before proceeding.
You can pay terminated employees. Terminated employees are hidden in Express Timesheet, Extended Timesheet and Manual Calculation. You don't need to unhide a terminated employee to enter a Backpay if you need to back pay a rate increase. To enter a Termination transaction, remove the termination details from the employee record, so that the employee is available in the termination screen.
To unhide terminated employees to process Express Timesheet, Extended Timesheet or Manual Calculation:
Go to Payroll, Transactions, Processing and select the transaction you want to use.
Click Options and select Change Form Options.
Untick Hide Terminated Employees.
Click OK. The screen will close to reset.
Open the transaction again and select the employee.
Enter the pay and click Process.
Once the transaction has been completed, tick Hide Terminated Employee again to avoid accidentally paying a terminated employee.
