To manage your year-end payroll efficiently, make sure that all payroll activities within the tax year are accurately accounted for, info-jmebookkeep. I'm here to guide you in processing your year-end payroll.

The pay period from March 10 to March 23, with a pay date of March 28, will be your final payroll for the current tax year.

Since the tax year concludes on April 5, any payroll with a pay date after this, including those for clients with pay runs ending on April 6 and payment dates of April 11, will be part of the new 2025/2026 tax year and should not be included in the year-end processes for 2024/2025.

To run your final payroll, please follow these steps:

1. Go to Payroll and select Employees.
2. Select Run payroll.
3. Check the pay date. You can select the calendar to change when your employees get paid. Remember, the pay date must fall within the tax period.
4. Select all the employees you want to pay.

After running the March 28 payroll, you should complete your year-end processes.
