Remove unwanted corrections

You may need to remove or amend any changes you have made to complete pay runs in Sage Payroll.

You can edit a completed pay run as many times as you need. The process is the same each time.

This article explains how to remove or amend these unwanted corrections.

How to remove or amend unwanted corrections

For example:

The process to remove or amend an unwanted correction is the same as making a correction in the first place. Edit the affected pay run and make the changes you need.

The solution:

• Edit the month 1 pay run to remove Sam's bonus
• Edit the month 2 pay run to add it

I can't find the edited period

Sometimes a correction will appear on an employee record in your payment run.

You may not know or recall the period which you edited to cause the correction.

If you know the correction should not be there you may want to delete it.

Corrections can't be deleted, but you can reverse the effect on the employee pay.

Select the relevant article and follow the directions to solve your issue:

• Reverse a correction payment
• Reverse a correction deduction
