Statutory Sick Pay (SSP)

To use this functionality there are a few steps that need to be taken for it to work successfully. You may encounter errors within a Pay Run process if not followed.

Steps to use the new 24.2 feature of SSP Calculations and Automation

1. Enable SSP within Payroll Config > UK > Features

2. Update Pay Component Sub Type UK Sick Leave with the following options:

   1. Inactive = Unchecked

   2. Show In Time Entry = Checked

   3. Show in Leave Request = Checked

   4. Show in ESS/MyPay = Checked

3. Update Pay Component Sub Type Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) with the following options:

   1. Inactive = Unchecked

   2. Show in Time Entry = Checked

   3. Show in Leave Request = Unchecked

   4. Show in ESS/MyPay = Unchecked

4. Update Pay Component Sub Type UK SSP Waiting Day with the following options:

   1. Inactive = Unchecked

   2. Show in Time Entry = Checked

   3. Show in Leave Request = Unchecked

   4. Show in ESS/MyPay = Unchecked

After the above has been completed the Time Entry Stage of the Pay Run will complete successfully. If the above Pay Component Sub Types are not setup in this way you may get an error at the Time Entry stage and will have to rollback the Pay Run complete the steps above and start again.

To be able to use this functionality for an Employee you either need to create Leave Requests or Time Entries against the employee for the dates they are taking Sick Leave.

You would use the Pay Component Sub Type UK Sick Leave for this purpose.

When processing a Pay Run checks will be done at the Time Entry stage and be displayed for you to review. This is where you will see the SSP Waiting Days and the SSP days with amounts being used.
