2018/19 Year end and starting 2019/20. These instructions will guide you smoothly through the process.

Note

You do not have to 'close off' 2018/19 payroll before starting 2019/20 Payroll. 2018/19 payments  will still be retained in the 2019/20 version and you can still process 2018/19 pay in the 2019/20 version. Use the 'Year' drop down at the top left of the Payroll screen to swap between years. Payback is a multi-year payroll system.
