How to add a once-off payslip

Once-off payslips should be used in cases where special payments need to be made to an employee. The most common examples are payments made on/after termination, and maternity leave pay.

1. In the left sidebar, click on Employees, then select the relevant employee.
2. In the Payslip section, click on the payslip date.
3. Select Manually Add Payslip.
4. In the Add Once-Off Payslip section, select the Date on which you will be paying the employee.
5. Click on Create.

You can also add once-off payslips in bulk. See our Bulk Changes to Once-Off Payslips article.

Adding items to once-off payslips

Only once-off items can be added to once-off payslips. This can be done individually or in bulk. For more information on adding items to once-off payslips in bulk, see our Bulk Inputs article.

How to add next regular payslip

Not applicable to regular pay periods

As a general rule, you should not need to add payslips for regular pay periods as the system automatically generates the next payslip when the current one is finalised. However, if you do need to generate the next regular payslip without finalising the current one, you can do so by clicking Create under Add Next Regular Payslip, on the Add Payslip screen.

1. In the left sidebar, click on Employees, then select the relevant employee.
2. In the Payslip section, click on the payslip date.
3. Select Manually Add Payslip.
4. In the Add Next Regular Payslip section, select the Date on which you will be paying the employee.
5. Click on Create.

Cumulative tax calculations

Because of the cumulative calculation used, the tax calculated on this newly generated payslip may not be correct until the previous period's payslip is finalised. We would, therefore, strongly recommend finalising the previous payslip before making any payments/decisions based on this one.
