If you need to process an early payment for a termination or a pay that was missed, you can enter the transaction(s), produce the EFT and Pay Advice, and then leave it to be included in your next Period.
β
When you run the Payroll Report or Transaction Report for the Period End Date, these figures will be included because they belong to the Period End Date, but if the system has already produced the EFT and Pay Advice, it will not produce them again.
Things to consider:
To match the Net Pay on the Payroll Report, you will need to add the amount already paid (early payment) to the total EFT on the final report. You can find the amount already paid by:
Employee Enquiries - Run Employee Enquiries for all employees in the current period, and review the EFT Status column. EFTs already generated will have 'Include in EFT: Generated dd/mm/yyyy', and EFTs yet to be generated will have 'Include in EFT'.
EFT Export - Enter parameters for the current period, tick Regenerate Processed Employees and click Preview
If you produce the Pay Advices early, you will have a least two Pay Events to report in STP Reporting (one for each time you produced Pay Advices). You can report the early event when you produce the EFT and Pay Advices. Again, you will need to add the events together to balance to the Payroll Report.
