Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) and Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP) can often require adjustments or overrides in payroll systems like BrightPay. If SSP is not displaying on the payslip, confirm that all sick leave dates are appropriately logged, including non-working days. For SMP, ensure settings correctly reflect all relevant periods and that any manual adjustments, such as overriding amounts for wealth adjustments or after a pay rise, are handled via the payslip configuration options. This may involve checking the employee profile details for correct entries or ensuring the user role entitles them to make necessary overrides.

If an adjustment is required, this can be carried out via the adjustment section on the payslip.

Please hold down the shift key on your keyboard and then click into the spanner icon within the statutory pay section.

You can then select to override amount.

You can then enter in the correct amount required for this pay.
