    Hi AT1 

     

    If you have created the payroll category after starting the payrun you would need to reprocess the pay for that employee. To save having to redo the pays for all employees, you could deselect that employee, record pays for all other employees then go back and process a pay for that employee only.

Hi AT1 

 

Just noticed this post and thought I might have an answer; When you say

 

 

Are you trying to add a Payroll Category to an Employee while in the middle of processing payroll? If so, then it sounds like you would need to click the Add Payroll Category button on that employee's wages to add it in.

 

That way you don't have to cancel all the pays.

 

Here's a help article that shows how to add a Payroll Category during a pay run: https://help.myob.com/wiki/display/ar/Review+employee+pays+before+recording+them#expand-Toaddapayrollcategorytoanemployee

 

Hope this helps.

    Thanks Hayden.

    Unfortunately the payroll category that I have added is not in the list as I have added the payroll category after I have commenced the prayroll - if this makes sense.  Any ideas??

    Thanks
