Why can't I edit a payslip anymore?

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.
