More Information
Go to " Payroll Run Payroll Period".
- Enter <Y> against the employee's pay frequency or click the [Down arrow] and select [Yes]. Then click the [OK] button to go into the payroll.
- Highlight the relevant employee and press <C+F7> to take you through to the "Adjustment Entry" screen.
Tip: If a screen appears saying 'Attachment orders' showing other attachments, if this is the existing child support payment attachment you can press <F5> to edit it If it is not the required attachment, you can press <F6> to create a new one. - This will take you to a screen asking for the required "Agency". This is where you enter 'CSA' for 'Child Support Agency'.
If you type in 'CSA' in upper case and get a message saying 'Agency Not Found', please Contact your Platinum dealer or our support team on 0116 230 1500 or by using our website support contact page. - Enter the start and end dates from the paperwork supplied to you by HMRC in the "Start Date" and "End Date".
- In the "Reference" field, enter a description for the Attachment (e.g. "Child Support - JB" i.e. initials of employee.)
- On the "Attachment type", enter '01' for 'Amount'.
- If the total amount owed is shown on the HMRC paperwork, enter this in the "Total Amount" field.
Note: Generally the 'Total Amount' is not provided, and a stop notice will be issued to you once the attachment is no longer required. You can therefore leave this field blank. - Press <Esc> and [Accept] to complete.
