  • Enter <Y> against the correct pay frequency for the employee, or click the [Down arrow] and select 'Yes'.
  • Click [OK] to open the payroll.
  • Select the correct employee and click <Ctrl+F8> to open the [SMP/SPP/SAP/ShPP Entry] screen.
  • You will see a box appear containing any SMP/SPP/SAP/ShPP entries in place for this employee.
  • Make sure your cursor is pointing at the correct line and press <F5> to Edit/View the entry.
  • Select the [Diary] tab.
  • For each week that they will no longer be paid Statutory Pay, select 'Worked' from the drop down "Status" menu.
  • In the "Notes", enter a reason e.g. 'Early Return to Work'.
  • Press <Esc> and click [Accept] to save the changes.
