How do I correct the EoFY amounts after adding a missed payrun?

LPPS

Hi there

I (stupidly) submitted my eofy report before confirming the totals were correct, then discovered that I had forgotten to submit a payrun in April. I have now submitted the April payrun, but it's not included in the the eofy totals.

Can you please advise how I can fix this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @LPPS

What is the pay date that you entered for this specific pay run?

LPPS

Hi @Rav

The paydate is 8/4/22. Although I did (again stupidly) submit with yesterday's date, but resubmitted (via revert to draft) with the correct date.

Rav

Thanks for getting back to me @LPPS

Ok, that's where the issue is. At the moment the Payroll App isn't playing nicely when a pay run is created within a certain financial year but then edited and the pay date changed to one in a different financial year which is what you've described.

What you'll need to do is delete this particular pay run and recreate it with the correct pay date from the outset and send through the STP submission as normal.

When you create your first 'actual' pay run of the 2022/23 financial year, your YTD balances will be updated with that new pay run.

Hi @Rav

Thanks for your quick response.

So, I've deleted the payrun and 2022/2023 now looks good.

But, how can I get the 2021/2022 eofy totals to be correct now that I'm missing that payrun? This is the bit I'm really stuck on as the eofy data isn't correct for our employees.

Rav

Recreate the payrun in the Payroll App but this time create it with the correct pay date from the outset. Once you've completed create a new EOFY finalisation and the balances will be updated and ready for you to send.

LPPS

Thanks so much @Rav, all sorted. Really appreciate your help!

Question, Rav,

Does this not duplicate the information with a 2nd finalisation?

I have a similar problem in that my client wants to change the amount of her final pay for June but I have already finalised. I thought I would need to undo the finalisation, process the pay correction and then finalise again.

Hi @BobbieGreen

I've just flicked you a reply on your other thread 🙂
