Hi Neil,

The system will automatically set the payment after leaving flag if you follow these steps:

1. Remove the leave date from the employee's record
2. Set their tax code to 0T week/month 1
3. Set the process date to the date the payment was/is being made.
4. Enter the relevant payment within the enter payments routine
5. Run any pre-update reports, payslips etc
6. Update the records
7. Re-enter the original leave date on the employee's record
8. Send the FPS

Removing the leave date allows you to process another payment for the employee, re-entering the leave date before sending the FPS will make the system include the payemtn after leaving flag in the FPS.

Gary

Hi Karen,

Removing the employee’s leave date and setting their tax code to 0T week 1/month 1 is correct. However, it appears as if you’re trying to pay the employee in the same tax month as you’ve already paid him.

As the first day of the tax year is 6 April, tax months run from 6^th of the month to the 5^th of the next month. Therefore, tax month 3 runs from 6 June until 5 July, meaning 1 July is in the same tax month as your June pay day.

To resolve this you should set your Process Date in Sage 50 Payroll to your July process date to pay the extra wages to this employee.

You can view and print the 2016/2017 tax year here.

You can refer to Ask Sage article 18788 for full details on how to process extra pay for a leaver after issuing their P45.

Many thanks, yes that worked.

Great, you're welcome Karen.

If you've any further queries just give us a shout :)
