When clicking the Change Basic Pay button on an employee's profile you will not be able to select a date that is previous to the latest effective date of the employee's salary.

For example, if the latest salary line for the employee is dated 01/09/2025 you will only be able to select a date starting with 02/09/2025.

If you need to add a salary line previous to this date you will need to do so from the Pay History page:

  1. Search for the employee and go to their profile.

  2. Click Payroll, then Pay.

  3. Click Pay History.

  4. Click Add Payment (Admin - Unrestricted).

  5. Enter the effective date and select the correct salary details.

  6. Click Save.

πŸ“Œ Note: You will be unable to select a date previous to the employee's start date. This is true for both methods of adding a salary.
