Slightly different from other employees as the client is a semi professional football club. A player will receive their final pay for the season in June then won't receive anything until August. Sometimes players will not return the following season. So with his final payment I couldn't mark it as final as I didn't know at the time it was final.
He is wanting his P45 now. How do I do this in Sage? There is one option "P45 - Plain paper (for eSubmissions)". Would this one be ok to print for him? It does mention (new employer) sending Part 3 to HMRC but this is no longer done.
Would this employee be removed when I try to file the next FPS?
Can I pay him 1p and process him with today's date and mark this as his final payment for the year? (He is on BR code).
What is the easiest way round this?

I do not use Sage for payroll but had a similar experience with Moneysoft - all I had to do was enter the date of 'leaving' in the 'Employee' part of the software and then it enabled me to request a P45, with the person leaving reported through the next FPS. Is there anywhere in Sage you can do something similar?
Failing that - how about trying the Sage forums - there seem to be some lurking around the T'internet

Hi Peasie
I have just found your post
When you say about marking his final pay as final do you mean ticking the check box on enter payments. If so I wouldn't worry about this as I sometimes forget to use this even when I do know that it is an employees final pay.
Provided that you have updated his record after you have run his final pay I just highlight the employee then go to Employee/Leaver/Next and process it straight from there. I usually run the P45 plain paper for esubmissions and then email it to the client to forward on to their now ex-employee.
It will get picked up on the next FPS that he has now left the company.
