Is there a way to add an employee to a processed payroll run?

I missed a casual employee from today's payroll run. Is there a way to edit this payroll and add the employee? I am using Reckon Hosted and the "pay employees" window to process the pays. I have not submitted the STP report to the ATO.

    You can run a second payroll using the same dates. Did you look in the help files?

    Thanks. I'll give it a try. Do you know if the first and second payroll will then be included in the STP file?

    Yes they will as only YTD figures are uploaded

    As Kris mentioned, STP updates YTD balances only (as opposed to that specific pay run’s figures)

    Therefore:

    You can choose to do a Full File Replacement submission (which will update ALL balances for that day’s pay run - meaning previously submitted employee data will be unchanged for any employees who’ve not had a subsequent pay on that date)

    OR

    You can do an Update Event, selecting just the missed employee’s pay to include only that one

    OR

    If the employee is paid every pay run, you can leave it, as the next usual pay run’s STP submission will incorporate the change anyway 😁

    Acctd4 except you don't need to do this. It will catch up in subsequent filings. Kris is only partly right.
