# Managing Payroll Adjustments

Record approved bonuses, deductions and other adjustments in the correct payroll period.

## 1. Confirm the adjustment

Obtain the approved amount, employee, payroll period and reason for the change.

## 2. Enter the payroll component

Use the appropriate earning or deduction component. Check whether the entry is a one-time adjustment or a recurring item.

## 3. Review the calculation

Check how the adjustment affects gross pay, deductions and net pay. Review any related contribution treatment.

## 4. Keep the supporting record

Retain the approval and reconcile the final payslip with the approved adjustment.
