How to avoid Gross to Net error when paying out Banked OT balance at end of year
E1 9.2
Canadian Payroll
I am being asked the following by users.
They need to payout unused Banked OT balances before year end. Overtime is banked as "after tax" Banked overtime and paid and taxed as normal income. The Banked OT is setup as a Deduction and is used to set aside a % of the overtime pay code so that when it is paid as a negative deduction it can be paid without any deductions being withheld.
The issue they run into is when balances are being paid out at the end of year, some employees may not have other pay that period (Christmas break so using Banked OT as pay for that period) so they need to add interims for these to avoid GTN error. This can be quite time consuming when there are many individual interims to add.
