How to skip an entire Pay Run

How to prevent all employees from being included in a pay run in Sage Payroll.

Caution:

The Skip Pay Run function skips the entire pay run for all employees. You cannot use it to exclude one employee.

After you skip a pay run, you cannot process it later.

To exclude one employee while paying others, do not select Skip Pay Run.

Instead, open the employee’s pay run details. Remove or zero out their earnings, hours, and other payment amounts.

Sage Payroll will not generate a payment for that employee. You can continue processing payments for the remaining employees.

  1. Go to Pay Run in the Payroll menu.

  2. Select Skip pay run.

  3. Make sure you read and understand the procedure for skipping a pay run.

  4. Click Skip pay run, then click Close when the procedure finishes.
