Making an additional payment after an employee's leave date

  1. From the Employee menu, select P45 Routines > Restore Leavers.

  2. Choose the relevant employee from the list and select OK.

  3. The system will check if the employee has already appeared on an FPS as a leaver. If they have, a warning message will appear:

    ‘Are you restoring this employee to continue paying them, or are you making a payment after leaving?

  • Choose Yes to continue paying the employee or make an adjustment to their final pay.

  • Choose No to make an additional payment to the employee after they left'.

  1. If you select No,the following message will appear:

    ‘A Full Payment Submission, including the leave date, has already been sent to HMRC for this employee. Since you have indicated you are making a payment after leaving, the employee’s Tax Code will be set to 0T week1/month1.’

  2. Select OK, and the system will allow you to restore the employee and automatically change their Tax Code to 0T week 1/month 1.

  3. Pay the leaver as needed in the current pay period.

  4. Remember to recreate the leaver in the system by returning to Issue P45 and using the original leave date.

  5. The employee will appear in the next FPS and their payment will be flagged as a Payment After Leaving.
