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 example is payments made on/after termination.

  1. Go to Employees, and select the relevant employee.

  2. In the Payslip section, click the payslip date.

    Where to find the payslip date

  3. Click Manually Add Payslip.

  4. In the Add Once-Off Payslip section, select the Date on which you will be paying the employee.
  5. Click Create.

You can also add once-off payslips in bulk. See our Managing Once-Off Payslips in Bulk help page.

Adding items to once-off payslips

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

How to add the 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 following the steps below.

  1. Go to Employees, and select the relevant employee.
  2. In the Payslip section, click the payslip date.
  3. Click Manually Add Payslip.
  4. In the Add Next Regular Payslip section, click Create.

How to recreate a deleted payslip

A deleted payslip cannot be restored, but you can create it again:

  • Once-off payslip: Follow the steps in How to add a once-off payslip, and add the once-off items to the new payslip again.
  • Regular payslip: You don't usually need to recreate a regular payslip. When you finalise a payslip, the system creates the employee's next regular payslip if they don't already have a draft one, so a deleted regular payslip comes back once you finalise the payslip before it. To recreate it sooner, follow the steps in How to add the next regular payslip.
