@mariazaf163 Perhaps some more information might be needed to suggest whether it is possilbe in the Payroll app to amend 2020-21 payruns.

Has a FY2020-21 EOFY Payrun already been done. In such a situation considering the employee would already have lodged the 2021 tax return with ATO it is not worth it. You will have to take advise from a Tax accountant as the employee will also have to lodge amended Tax return using a letter from the employer.

It has been lodged and accepted by the ATO but the employee has not lodged and has noticed an error. I can't understand how the employee has picked up the error but the employee is the one that did their own payruns.

Yep! I don't know either. I did a couple which the tax was only $99 for that time frame. Yet now that she wants to lodge her tax she has noticed. Very odd.

Since the EOFY20-21 Final Payrun has been done already you may need to read the ATO material linked below.

The relevant Payruns will need to be amended and resubmit as adjustments after edit and then redo the EOFY 2020-21 Payrun to ensure the ATO Income statement of employee is once again in Tax ready state.
