2019/20 Year end and starting 2020/21. These instructions will guide you smoothly through the process.

Note

You do not have to 'close off' 2019/20 payroll before starting 2020/21 Payroll. 2019/20 payments  will still be retained in the 2020/21 version and you can still process 2019/20 pay in the 2020/21 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.

3. Submit the final FPS for 2019/20. Remember to tick 'Final Submission ' at the bottom left and also tick 'Final Submission of the Year'. (see below)
4. Produce P60s for your employees.
5. Back up your database.
