To record and lump sum payment and to finalise a redundancy, please follow the steps below:

 

  1. Create a New Pay Run and make sure the employee who is being make redundant is included in this payrun
  2. In the payrun screen, click on the name of the employee
  3. Look for green Actions button towards the bottom right
  4. Click Actions and select Terminate Employee
  5. Review and make sure Ordinary Hours worked to the employee is also included in the earning session.

    At this point, the payment detail session for this employee should turn in pink to highlight this employee is being terminated and accrued leave balance will be added to the earning session for this employee. Tax and super would also be atomically adjusted based on the additional earnings.

  6. As part of termination/redundancy, select redundancy/ETP tick box
  7. Enter in the ETP type "R" taxable amount
  8. If applicable, enter ETP Type "O" amounts into Type "O" fields
  9. After reviewing amounts & tax figures, press the save button
  10. After reviewing redundancy payment & information entered is correct, Press the green Finalise Pay Run Button and proceed as per normal Pay Run process from here.

Hi David B2,

 

I don't think you have attached the pay slip correctly as I cannot see it on our Community site.

 

Also, are you able to give us a little more context into the situation with the employee you have mentioned in your original query? 

 

What queries did you have with the ETP Type R? 

 

Sorry, I just need some more information here to help you as best as I can.

 

Kristian.
