Unlocking a pay run will enable you to edit, update and recalculate the values associated with a chosen pay run. Unlocking can only be done when a pay run has been finalised and the CPF lodgement report has not been generated for the pay run.
Note: a pay run cannot be unlocked if a CPF lodgement report has been created for the pay run.
To unlock a Pay Run you need to:
- Click on the required pay run in the 'Pay Runs' screen;
- Click on the 'Pay Run Actions' button then choose the 'Unlock' option;
- Enter a reason for unlocking the pay run > click Unlock:
Once you unlock the pay run and make any required adjustments you can then finalise it once again.
If you still need to adjust earnings, for example, and the CPF lodgement report has already been created, you will need to create an adhoc pay run. Within that pay run, select the incorrect earnings line and enter a minus value for the hours. Then click on the 'Actions' button and select 'Add Earnings' before entering a positive value for that line. Also, remember to make the pay period and date paid the same as the initial pay run that you are adjusting.
