If a new employee already has a job and is also working for your company, they must contact Revenue. Revenue confirms how the employee’s tax allowances split between the two employments. The figures import into Payroll when you retrieve the employee's RPN. Once you submit an employee as a leaver and you’ve processed a pay run, this can't be changed. If an employee leaves the company and returns, you must reflect this new employment. Add a new employee record for them with their up-to-date details. This ensures that the employee’s deductions and net pay are correct. Email error 
This happens because the original employee record contains the employee's email address. To work around this, we can make a small change to the email address we use in the new employee record. Insert +1 before the @ in the employee's email address. For example: [email protected] becomes [email protected]. The email address will work the same as the original. The employee doesn't have to change anything within his email settings. You can delete an employee record that you've created, but not processed in a pay run. To delete an employee record: -
From the Employees tab, select the relevant employee. -
From the Employee Details tab, select Delete employee. Please note that this option is only available if you've not processed the employee in a pay run. -
To confirm you want to delete the record, select Delete. This employee will no longer appear in your employee list or on any payroll reports. [BCB:299:UKI - Personal content block - Dane:ECB] [BCB:305:UKI - Search override - Payroll IE:ECB] [BCB:276:UKI - hide back button:ECB] |
