Hi SarahJB,
Thanks for your post and welcome here to the Community Forum. Apologies for the delay in responding and I appreciate you sharing your concerns.
Regarding your inquiry, if the employee has already been terminated on the system, we won't be able to process the payments. It would be best to process the payment first before terminating the employee.
Please feel free to post again if you need further assistance in the future.

Thanks Leneth,
If it was just the one payment then it would be simple however the problem is that we are required to make ongoing weekly payments for this ex employee for as long as they are entitled to WorkCover payments, which could be months or even years. These payments need to ne reported to the ATO as there is PAYG tax payable on them, hence my dilema
Hoping there is some other solution as there will be another employee in the same situation in 3 weeks.
Thanks Sarah

Hi SarahJB,
Thanks for letting me know and thank you for more information about your concern.
The other option is if the employee was terminated, you may activate the employee card file again, process the employment termination payment (ETP), and after you reported to the ATO you may deactivate it again. You can find more information about this in our help article Processing an employment termination payment (ETP).
Please let me know if you need further help.

As mentioned twice now, these payments are to be ongoing weekly and are NOT one off payments. So in light of that are we to activate and reactivate the card eack week?
There must be some alternative.
Thanks Sarah
