Tax adjustments are amounts you can include in an employee's future pay runs. For UK customers who use Payroll, you can now set up one-off or recurring tax adjustments directly from the employee's Pay details. For each tax adjustment, choose a start date, an end date and an amount. Once you save it, the tax adjustment is available for use in pay runs.
