Summary
In Sage Payroll v22.3 and above the process for making corrections to a benefit in kind (BIK) has been simplified by the ability to enter a negative BIK within Enter Time and Pay to correct the employee's BIK year to date (YTD) value.
Description
As the negative BIK value is included on the timesheet, it means that you no longer need to submit historical correction payroll submissions to Revenue.
You need to download and install Sage Payroll v22.3 to process a negative BIK.
You can enter a negative value for Gross BIK payments only. No other payments should have a negative value.
To do this, follow the steps below:
Resolution
- Click Enter Time and Pay.
- Select the required entry mode, click Continue then select the relevant employee.
- Enter a negative value in the Hrs/Val column of the relevant BIK payment.
To check your BIK payments, click Company/Payroll then click Payments. - To check the employee's BIK YTD value, click Payslip then check the BIK YTD value.
- Click Save then click Cancel.
