Maternity Pay for Employee

Problem reported by Michael Mcgowan 7 years ago

I have just started using the Payroll part of the system - Payroll was previously done by Cheap Accounting.

I am trying to start Maternity Leave for an Employee.

If I go into the Statutory Pay tab and fill in the details it says she is not eligible, however she is - how do I override this as I need to process Payroll this week?

We received a Maternity Pay advance from HMRC on 5th April from HMRC PAYE

When importing from my bank account through Yodlee I explained the payment as a HMRC refund as I couldn't see how else to explain it - however I don't think this is correct as it has increased the profit available. Does the system have an entry for this type of payment?

Hi Michael,

Apologies for the delayed response!

I have taken a look in our system and it seems that you have correctly processed April's payroll by choosing to override with inputting your employee's basic pay. Also, with the HMRC payment, you can process it as a refund, but then you will have to use the same account code as for Maternity Pay Advance as when it is paid to the employee.

I hope this has been helpful, if you require further assistance, please email in to contact support as we may require some sensitive information which I don't want to share on the community.

Thanks, Tommy
