We have also provided a history table, so you are able to review all deductions and the total remaining in real time.

New feature:
Manage overpayment repayments
We have developed a new feature allowing you to control your overpayments and how they are repaid. Within the pay menu, you will now see employee overpayment. Go to employee overpayment repayments to find out how to set up a deduction pay element and the settings within the company general screen you will need to activate to use this feature.
You can set a maximum overpayment amount to define the amount to be deducted in worker payslip. The employee overpayment balance and deduction in the current pay period will be displayed under employee overpayment history section.
Please note: as part of the set up you will need to click the no negative pay function in the company screen (see employee overpayment repayments for further information) - The no negative pay functionality uses a non-taxable, non-NI'able element. The calculations work as they would do in the absence of this functionality. To ensure that any tax refund is reclaimed the withhold tax refunds when no pay should be ticked against the worker through the employee - general details screen. National Insurance refunds and adjustments to the NI Levels (ToLEL etc) should be made through the pay - statutory override screen.
Improvements:
Pay elements lines totalling zero will now show on payslips
Previously, if you have a set up within the company - general screen as below, any timesheets totalling zero sent through using the same pay elements would result in no entries on an employees payslip.
We have changed this, so now if you have multiple lines for a pay element that totals a zero amount, each line will still be displayed on the payslip, showing positive and negative payment lines.
Exporter improvements
We have made changes to our exporters, you will now see totals showing for CSV files greater than 150 columns. Go to import/export in the top menu bar, and then export data. This function allows you to build exporters for your data, giving your greater access to the data you need.
P45s entered after a P6 has been applied
You will now see an error message appear if you try to enter a previous employment P45 when a P6 has already been applied with previous pay or tax through the employee tax screen. This P45 will not be applied.
Payslips with more than 40 lines
We have made improvements to our PDF payslip email reports for payslips with over 40 lines, all lines within the payslip will now show on the report. Our reporting function can be used in a variety of ways, from standard reports to group reporting.
