24. Click the Actions button.
25. Click Adjust PAYG.
    
26. Write a note if needed, and enter the PAYG amount to be adjusted.

30. Choose the correct super type, write a note if needed, and enter the super amount to be adjusted.
31. Click the Save button.
    
32. If you need to adjust leave, please go to the Adjust Leave section of this article.
33. If you are done, please go to the Finalise Pay Run section.

Adjust Leave

You can also adjust leave balances in this pay run. To do this, following these steps:

32. Click the Actions button.
33. Click Adjust Leave.
    
34. Choose the correct leave category, and write a note if needed.
35. Enter the leave amount.
    
    

    Important

    Put a negative number to reduce the employee's leave balance. This means you have to put a minus sign (e.g. -5, -1).

    Otherwise, put a positive number to increase their leave balance (e.g. 4, 2).

36. Click the Save button.
    
    
    

    Helpful Hint

    You need to perform Steps 32-36 for each leave category that was accrued in the original pay run.

37. If you are done, please go to the Finalise Pay Run section.
