Correction Payroll
Use Correction Payroll to fix amounts from a payroll run that has already completed. Instead of re-running the whole payroll, Omnivoo works out the difference (the delta) between the original and corrected gross amounts and processes only that difference.
Getting There
Correction Payroll is reached by a direct link at /employer/payroll/correction. It is not in the Create Payroll menu on the Payroll dashboard (that menu only offers Regular, Off-Cycle, and Final Pay). If you do not have the link, ask Omnivoo support, who can point you to it.
The flow has three steps: Select Run, Edit Amounts, and Review.
Step 1: Select a Completed Run
You will see a list of all completed payroll runs, each showing its name, type, period, employee count, and total net amount. Click the run you want to correct.
Only completed runs can be corrected. If no runs appear, you have not completed a payroll run yet.
Step 2: Edit Corrected Amounts
A table lists every employee from the selected run:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Employee | Employee name |
| Original Gross | The gross amount from the original run (read-only) |
| Corrected Gross | Edit this to enter the correct gross amount |
| Delta | The difference, calculated automatically (green for an underpayment, red for an overpayment) |
Only employees whose corrected amount differs from the original are included in the correction. The footer shows totals for original, corrected, and net delta. When you are done, click Review Corrections, which shows how many employees will be corrected.
Step 3: Review & Create
The review screen shows only the affected employees with their original, corrected, and delta amounts, plus the net correction amount. Set the Pay Date for the correction, then click Create Correction Run.
You are taken to the run detail page, where you approve and pay the correction the same way as any other run.
Corrections are categorized automatically: an underpayment becomes an Arrears addition, and an overpayment becomes an Overpayment Correction deduction. Only the delta is processed, not the full salary.
