There may be times when you need to adjust your payroll or correct a mistake. To do this, watch the video or follow the steps below.
Before you rollback
Before rolling back, consider the following:
Manual updates: Manually adjust pension status, contribution changes, and tax codes.
Leavers' P45s: Regenerate from the Documents tab after resubmitting the period.
Workflow impact: It reverts to the current step, deadlines become outdated, and step notifications pause until the payroll is current.
FPS corrections: None if you're only updating year-to-date values.
Restrictions: You can't roll back a period if you've submitted a supplementary pay run. You can't update pay periods in a rollback state.
Reports: Download before rolling back.
Pensions: Switch to manual if recalculating contributions, then upload manually after running the period.
HMRC misalignments: Rolling back and resubmitting may cause discrepancies with HMRC. In this instance, contact HMRC directly.

Click Payroll then click the History tab.
