Adjust pay period dates on Payroll classic

Available for the following plans: Employment Plus, Employment Unlimited
Available for the following Payroll plans: Standard, Premium

You can use the Adjust Pay Period feature to change the start and/or end date of a pay run.

Important considerations when adjusting pay periods

  • Pay schedule restrictions: Pay schedules are fixed to weekly, fortnightly, or monthly options. When adjusting the pay period, ensure that the new dates align with these schedules.
  • Tax calculations: If you're adjusting pay periods to overlap with days already paid, such as during a transitional period (e.g., 10 days), be aware that the tax calculations may be impacted. The platform will adjust the tax according to the ATO tax tables.
  • Employee removal: If an employee's start date or end date is before the new pay period start date, the platform will automatically remove them from the pay run.
