Pension Opting Out

I need to enter auto-enrolment pension details prior to running the last payroll of the year, but my employee (me) wants to opt out for this year.  Quickbooks doesn't seem to want to give me the option to opt out before running the payroll.  Is there a work around?

I would like to know how to do this as well, using standard payroll.


Hello Helen Hi, 

 

Welcome to the Community page, 

 

If you click into an employee>scroll down to workplace pension>turn off the tab that says enroll in pension. 

 

This will then not take any pension off you when you roll the payroll.

Hello Sharkbait365,

 

What version of payroll are you using? QuickBooks Payroll or Paysuite? Are you not given the option to opt out?

 

Thanks,

Hi - it is Quickbooks online.  But I managed to sort it in the employee section, rather than the payroll, so am all good.  Thanks for your reply!

Hi, 

How do you opt them out as I also need to do this for one of our employees?
