Due to the design of SelectPay, it is not possible to accept, edit or amend sicknesses from a previous tax year. To work around this, follow the steps in the related section below.

Pending change

If a sickness contains a previous tax year, it will need to be rejected. To do this, follow the steps below.

  1. Click Payroll and then click HR.

  2. Click Sickness, find and select the required pending sickness.

  3. Click Reject Selected, and enter a reason.

  4. Click Ok, and then click Process.

  5. Click Finish.


Sickness correction

If you need to adjust a sickness from a previous tax year, the dates can't be amended. If it is required, we suggest you make manual adjustments in the current tax year and use the previous year update wizard to adjust the employee's previous YTD figures for the required tax year.
