Question

Re-run a pay run for an employee who was previously excluded

I have finalised the payrun for the month and submitted both an FPS and EPS to HMRC for the month. In the payrun, I was asked to exclude an employee from the pay-run. However, I've now been advised that the employee now needs to be paid for the month. Can you tell me how I go about re-running the payrun just for that employee, or do I re-run it for all employees? Also, if the latter, how will HMRC know to ignore the first FPS I submitted?

We'll delete the pay run you created for this month, Sidra, and then create a new one (including the excluded employee) to correct your payroll records.

 

Here's how:

  1. Navigate to the Payroll menu on the left panel and choose Employees.
  2. On the Payroll screen, click the Payroll payment list link to view the list of paycheques.
  3. From there, click the Filter drop-down and enter the correct information for the following: Employee, Date range, From and To fields.
  4. Press the Apply button for the changes to take effect.
  5. Tick the box for pay run you want to remove and select Delete from the drop-down.
  6. In the Delete this payroll payment window, choose Delete to confirm the action.
  7. Repeat these steps for any additional pay runs that you need to delete.

After completing these steps, be sure to rerun the payroll and include the employee who was excluded from the previous pay run. Once done, you'll need to submit the FPS. Then, pick the reason for your filing: H Correction to earlier submission.
