How do I create/re-run payment runs?

Modified on Tue, 10 Dec, 2024 at 2:29 PM

Once your payroll is finalised, you can pay employees using your preferred payment method and report the details to HMRC in a FPS submission. How far the previous payment cycle has proceeded will dictate whether you want to re-run a payment cycle or create a supplementary cycle. If you haven’t yet authorised a previous payment cycle, you can overwrite the payment run.

How do I create a payment run?

Navigate to the Pay Employees window.
Go to Cintra iQ: Payroll> Payroll Tools> Paying Out> Pay Employees
Select the required payroll. The current payroll period for this payroll is displayed.

Note:

If this is the first payroll payment run of the payroll, the form will be empty.
Click the Create Run button. The Create Payment Run form appears.

Note:

The Payments Due Date is taken from the Payroll Setup record and you can overwrite the Payment Due Date if necessary.
Select all employees or selected individuals. The run is created.
Continue to view the Payment Run Details by clicking the Run Details button. The type of payment, bank details and values processed are details displayed by employee.

Note:

If there are any exceptions such as invalid or missing bank details, a message appears stating: Payment Run is created but run contains exceptions. Please click on Run Details to view. Click the Run Details button to view the Payment Run Exceptions tab.

How do I re-run payment runs?

Navigate to the Pay Employees window.
Go to Cintra iQ: Payroll> Payroll Tools> Paying Out> Pay Employees
Click on the Create Run button. A message appears stating: Creating a new Payment Run will overwrite Payment Run. Do you wish to continue?
Click the Yes button. This activates the payment cycle and overwrites the previous run. If you only want one payment cycle to match your balanced payroll, then use this method.
