What if I need to edit the pay?

Updated: October 2024

It is expected that you will edit your employee’s timesheet in Thankyou Payroll to add for example custom pay types and allowances. During the trial, Thankyou Payroll does not communicate timesheet updates back to the portal. With the exception of leave balances, information flows one way only - from the Payroll Portal into Thankyou Payroll when you click the ‘import timesheet’ button for that employee.

Employee leave balances update in the Payroll Portal with each processed pay in Thankyou Payroll.

 

*Also, it is important that you let us know if you've updated an employee's work pattern in Thankyou Payroll as the Portal uses this for calculations.

Remember: Import first, edit second.

  • So for this trial - With the exception of leave balances, what is done in the Payroll Portal, shows in the Payroll Portal. What is done in Thankyou Payroll, shows on employee payslips.

You have the option to request that the employee update their timesheet in the Payroll Portal and resubmit if you disagree with their time entries. Here is how to do this:

  • Decline’ their timesheet in the Payroll Portal and include notes on how to correct this. 
    • The employee will then correct their timesheet and re-submit it for approval.
  •  ‘Approve’ the corrected timesheet in the Portal and ‘import’ this into Thankyou Payroll for final editing.

Please notify your employee that their timesheet has been declined and that they need to update and resubmit. The employee will see the 'Declined' status change in their Payroll Portal. Automatic email notifications are not enabled for timesheet during this trial.

What if I need to add a lump sum payment or something not to do with employee time? How do I add this?

You add this as you normally would from within Thankyou Payroll after importing the employee’s approved timesheet. Remember: Import timesheet first, edit second
