Frequently asked payslips questions

The fastest and easiest way is to use the batch generation function under Services and then Payslips. You can then change the dates of the individual payslips if for some reason an employee worked a shorter period like a termination. The other way is to use the payslip tab in the employee profile, but this wont be linked to a payslip batch and also thus not the batch reports like nett pay lists or batch payslip emails. We offer this to ensure flexibility.

You must first add pay rates before creating payslips. Once a payslip is created, changes to pay rates won't affect payslips already created.

Yes, you can. It is recommended to add the opening balances of the prior payslips in the same financial year either as one payslip as a whole for the totals or the individual payslips. You can override the statutory calculations should there be variances by viewing a payslip and clicking on the amount. It is important to have opening balances so that the PAYE is calculated correctly for next payslips as it is calculated as a whole for the tax year.

You can add a payslip to the employee that was already terminated from the terminated employee's payroll profile payslip tab and clicking on the new button. This feature was added to accommodate awards made to the employee after termination but can also be used for other purposes.

The QR on our payslips provide an encrypted link for a third party like a credit provider to verify your employment remuneration information without the need to contact the employer. Saving you time to do what matters most.

Yes! This is in fact the correct way to do it. You can create a single payslip for just the employee from the payroll tab in the employee profile and just select the actual to and from dates. Our system is flexible, and you aren't confined to any set periods. This is also why there's no period rollovers.

Once you generate your EMP201, the payslip is no longer available for edit. You do not want a mismatch between your system data and data submitted to a tax authority. If you haven't submitted your EMP201 report to SARS yet, you can view it, delete it, and then you will be able to edit payslips again.

We don't do that. There is no need to change a period. If you want to go to the next period, you simply generate your payslips for the period you select. It is flexible and that is what is important. So, you also won't have any errors when rolling over or back.
