🎯 If an overpayment is identified in the same financial year it was paid, the Payee will only need to repay the Net amount that was overpaid.
The Net amount is received by the payee after PAYGW is deducted.

Commence a Regular Pay Run or an Out Of Cycle Pay Run to calculate the NET overpayment, then discuss and decide the best course of action based on the repayment amount.
If you have decided to recover the overpayment, and the Payee has
1. agreed to repay the Net Amount, which is less than $300.00,
  1. in the same pay period as the correction - add all other required pay types to the pay run where you have calculated the NET overpayment.
  2. over multiple pay periods - Add an Overpayment Deduction then Add the Overpayment Deduction into the Payee's Pay.
2. agreed to repay the Net Amount, which is equal to or more than $300.00,
  1. in the same pay period as the correction - Add a Loan Repayment Deduction and Add the Loan Repayment Deduction in the Payee's Pay.
  2. over multiple pay periods - Add a Loan Repayment Deduction then Add the Loan Repayment Deduction in the Payee's Pay.
