Sometimes you need to process an additional payment or make an adjustment to a previous payment for an employee who has left the company.
You can only do this if:
The employee isn't a director.
You aren't in a supplementary run.
You've period ended since the employee left.
Things to consider:
Once a payment after leaving is initialised, that type will be greyed out if you try and run the wizard again in the same month.
There are 2 types of payments after leaving, Standard and Irregular; HMRC have more information on when each should be used.
You can process both types in a period, but only use irregular if it meets the criteria.
To process the additional or adjusted payment, follow the steps below.
⚠️Caution: For leavers from a previous tax year, once you follow the steps below, you can't make any further changes.
