How do I correct payroll on Xero?

If an RTI has been submitted via Xero Payroll, a correction may be made in one of two ways depending on the timing of the correction.

Corrections after the Pay Date

Corrections after the Pay Date of the original submission can be completed by reverting the payroll and submitting a new RTI for the entire payrun.

Corrections before the Pay Date

Corrections that need to be made before the Pay Date should be made using an Unscheduled Pay Run. This should consist of an addition or subtraction of pay for the individual(s) whose pay is being corrected.

NB Reverting payroll and resubmitting to make corrections before the Pay Date may result in errors at HMRC.
