Thanks Joanne, I have trawled through that link all night, but there is no clear picture for my scenario. I assume I can put through an extra payment dated today and then the new weekly amount on Friday.
If it wasn't for having to submit it immediately I would put both through as one payment on Friday.
My worry is that on Friday I will be told you have already submitted for this period!
Not sure about the 'submit immediately', it should go BEFORE they are paid. Im assuming from the description that the payroll is not being done a week in arrears, just being paid on a Friday for work done Monday to that same Friday.
You need to 'encourage' the employer to not pay early!
I'm a little confused, you say his hours change from this week, but also say that the employer has already been paid an extra 2 days. Why has the employer done that? Will he, in effect, be paid 7 days this week? If that's the case, I would treat the two days already paid as an advance, work out the payroll on Friday, then deduct the advance from the net pay.
You can't make two submissions in one week so hopefully you didn't submit today. If you did, resubmit on Friday with the correct figures as above.
Like Joanne, I have assumed the employee is paid at the end of the week they work.
