With the 2014 version of payback, it is possible to process payments and make returns for previous years. To do this, select the year you wish to process in the Payroll screen. It is at the top left of the screen. When you select the year, the calendar will display dates appropriate to the year you have selected. There is also a Year drop down in the reports screen. Selecting this will allow reports and returns for previous years to be created.

It is possible to process years going back to 2004. Please process years in order (eg, start from 2006 then 2007 then 2008 etc., not 2009 then 2006).

Please ensure you have the correct tax information (tax credits and Standard rate cut off point etc.) entered for employees, relevant for the year you are processing. This can be updated in the Employee screen.

You have already processed the pay for this year, and now want to process the year before
You should always process years in order (see above). However, if you have already processed payments for an employee for (for example 2013) and now you want to process 2012 for the same employee, the easiest way to do this is set up a new employee record. Otherwise a 'payment skipped' message will appear.

hello, i am trying to do just that.
does the system know to save the 2012 credits etc
or does it overwrite them in 2013 when/if they updated

as for example, I see "The PRSI free allowance of €127 for certain employees (classes A, E and H) earning over €352 was abolished from 1 January 2013."

Hi spilynch,

Payback uses all the correct PRSI, Income levy, PAYE and USC rates going back through previous years.
If you wish to process prior years, you do have to enter the relevant tax credits and standard rate cut off point for each employee for the year you are processing.
