WFM UK: Tronc: Rolling back a Tronc Period in the Tronc2 Module

Overview

There may be instances when a Tronc period is submitted in error, or changes need to be made to it after Tronc was submitted to Payroll. The Tronc period can be rolled back to re-open the period, and to make changes before re-submitting to Payroll.

This article describes the process of rolling back a Tronc period within the Tronc2 module.  For the process of rolling back a Tronc period in the Tronc module, see the following article - WFM - Rolling back a Tronc Period in the Tronc Module

This should only be done as a last resort if it is not feasible to make changes to Tronc payments manually in the Payroll module.

Please Note: A preview should be run before and after the rollback to ensure that the payments are taken out of Payroll.

Permission Required to Roll Back Tronc in Tronc2

The correct permission needs to be assigned to the Access Level hierarchy of the users who will need to be able to use this functionality.

To add this permission via the Access Level in the Company Hierarchy:

• Go to the HR Module > select Company Admin > select Access Level Hierarchy
