Question

Negative Gross Pay

I need to enter a negative gross pay to recover an overpayment but I’m not sure why the “PAYG” does not populate an amount.

 

Please advise if the PAYG will be generated once I have finalised the pay run.

 

Please advise if there is a way that I can do an unscheduled pay run with a negative gross pay to fix an overpayment.

 

Many thanks.

Hi v-wong, 

 

PAYG is only automatically calculated on positive earnings, however if you do want to include a negative PAYG value, the best way to do so would be to create a negative PAYG Adjustment in the pay run. 

  1. In the pay run, click on the employee's name to expand their detailed earnings.
  2. Select the Actions button below their earnings lines, then select Adjust PAYG.
  3. Enter a negative figure to reduce the amount of PAYG, then Save.

Once those steps have been completed, the PAYG for that employee should be showing a negative figure, and you should be able to complete the rest of the pay run and finalise it to record the changes. 

 

Feel free to reply in this thread if you have any other questions!
