Sage Payroll 50 Adjustment

gbm · Guru

From memory, Sage payroll used to be a nightmare for doing this, as it did a period end after every week/month.

However, I haven't used it for 4 years, so it may have changed.

Thanks for your reply Nick

It does do a period end after every week, so do you mean we would have to restore back to the start of the year and re- enter?

From what you're saying - I think so.

However, I am sure there are people on here who currently use Sage Payroll who may have more of an idea.

Thanks Nick

I did have a feeling that this was what I would need to do, but was hoping there could have been another way

Fun week ahead fror me then!

Now I haven't used Sage payroll for a couple of years, then it was professional version for over 200 employees and three companies and you could use the "roll back" function for individual or all employees to roll back to a specific date/week number and then reprocess. I can't remember exactly where the option is, try searching in help. Be carefull, all the payslips issued may be inaccurate and possibly payment to HMRC I only used it very occassionally and preferred to adjust in the current period if at all possible.
PS. I may still have an old version loaded on a laptop somewhere I could load up if you need any further info.

That sounds good...and would save me so much time if I can just change the ones I need to rather than the whole lot

I am not back in the office until Monday so will investigate then.

Thank you for your input, it's really helpful to me as I don't usually process the wages

Hi

I currently use Sage payroll for my client and the rollback facility is the one you need but as stated before be careful with the adjustments.

You can find it in Tasks, then Rollback and just follow the onscreen instructions

Thanks Mark

I will have a go with that on Monday......hopefully it will all be good, otherwise you will all have to put up with me coming back here!

Thanks again for your replies
It is very much appreciated :o)

Well, I managed to do all the adjustments for the year thanks to you guys :o)

However.....I am now faced with another problem....with very little experience with sage 50 payroll

I was checking the records for this year (weeks 1-7) and have discovered that there are no records for week one although I have payslips. It seems it may have not been updated or something for that week. Weeks 2-7 are complete.

If I want to enter the figures for week one, do I have to roll back to that date and re enter the 7 weeks? Please tell me there is a simpler way to do this

What would I do without you!?
