Review native payroll availability and holiday-pay balances

The native payroll workspace is restricted to enabled users. Accounting view-only access allows inspection but disables employee and settings changes, new runs, posting and cancellation. Switching workspaces clears the previous payroll form and selected run.

If payroll information fails to load, use Försök igen. A failed request is not evidence that the company has no employees or runs. Settings cannot be saved until their existing values have loaded.

In Inställningar, review the contribution zone, optional rate override, holiday-pay percentage and wages-payable account. An empty override uses the zone's rate; an explicit zero remains zero. The holiday-pay percentage must be entered, even when it is zero. Unsaved changes remain in the form during background refreshes. Historical bank-transfer controls are no longer offered for new payroll posting; choose the cash account when recording an actual payment instead.

Holiday-pay drafts use the previous payroll year's posted native accrual, less holiday pay already posted or reserved by another draft for the payout year. Former employees with remaining accrual are included. Cancelling an unused draft releases its reservation. Correcting a posted payout returns it to draft and keeps its reservation until that draft is cancelled. Posting rechecks the remaining amount: if the backing accrual was corrected or another draft uses it, review those runs before proceeding.

Amounts must be finite, non-negative and have no more than two decimal places. Percentage fields use percentage units, from zero through one hundred. A genuine zero stays zero. Unsupported or missing contribution zones require correction rather than silently selecting another zone.

New employee salary, employment percentage, pension rate and applicable withholding fields start blank and must be entered explicitly. Existing values remain visible when editing. Selecting missing-card treatment uses its fixed fifty-percent withholding; it does not turn an empty percentage into a tax exemption. Editing unrelated employee details preserves any saved tax table, and that unsupported table remains a reason to stop calculation rather than silently switching methods.

Each employee needs an explicit Skattekortsmetod and Granskat utbetalningsår matching the intended payment year. Choose Vanligt procentkort only where the ordinary percentage method applies, Källskatt (fast procent) for the card's fixed PAYE percentage, or Inget skattekort (50 %) for the supported missing-card treatment. The last option uses fifty percent for wages; it does not use a blank or zero percentage as an exemption. Retrieve and review the current tax card separately before entering these facts.

PAYE and missing-card treatment retain full withholding in holiday-pay and half-withholding runs. Ordinary percentage treatment uses the selected run's reduction. Table withholding and exemption-card allowances are not calculated. Ordinary-percentage holiday payouts for employees over sixty are blocked until the supplementary taxable holiday pay can be reviewed separately. This does not calculate pension caps, the contribution-zone allowance or termination settlements.

New payroll lines retain their calculation basis and display the reviewed method and year. Later employee edits do not rewrite that saved basis. Existing employees are not assigned a guessed method. An old unposted draft without a reviewed basis must be cancelled and recreated after the employee facts are completed. Existing posted history remains readable.

The reporting preview uses the contribution zone and rate retained with the calculation, including an explicit zero rate. Changing company settings later does not relabel an old calculation. Historical runs without retained zone evidence show Arbetsgivaravgift: historisk zon eller sats behöver granskas. Amounts remain visible, but this preview is not a filing-ready return: actual payment periods and reporting details still need review. Personal identity numbers remain masked in the preview.

Choose Skuldkonto för nettolön in payroll settings before posting. This is a liability account for net wages awaiting payment, not the bank account. The posting review shows Bokföringsdatum and each account's Debet (NOK) and Kredit (NOK). Choose Bokför granskad lön only after checking those entries. If the accounts or underlying facts changed since review, posting is refused until the current review is opened. The saved voucher retains its reviewed calculation and account evidence.

New reviewed payroll posting records wage costs and liabilities. It does not record net-wage cash movement, send money, create withholding-account transfers or mark withholding as paid. Actual wage and tax payments must be recorded separately. Older posted runs retain their original bank entries and show a legacy notice; their posting alone is not proof of payment. The historical Äldre överföring till skattekonto (före 2026) setting does not create a transfer in this new accrual flow.

Under the current Norwegian rule, pay withholding directly to Skatteetaten by the first working day after wage payment. This workspace does not send that payment or calculate a banking deadline. See Skatteetaten's withholding guidance.

After posting a supported reviewed run, Faktiska lönebetalningar shows wages owed to each employee and withholding owed separately. Saldodatum shows the balances on a selected date; return to today to record changes. Correcting the original accrual does not erase actual cash payments. An overpayment remains visible until a real refund or accounting correction is recorded.

Use Registrera betalning only for money that actually moved. For cash not yet booked, enter the actual Belopp (NOK), Faktiskt betalnings- eller korrigeringsdatum, Bank- eller kontantkonto and Banktransaktionens referens, then choose Registrera faktisk rörelse. Partial payments reduce the selected payable. The workspace records the accounting; it does not send money.

For cash already in the ledger, select Koppla befintligt betalningsverifikat, enter Verifikationsår and Verifikationsnummer, and choose Granska verifikat. Check the displayed original date, amount, bank and reference, then enter an open Kopplingsdatum and supporting reference. Linking creates no bank posting. Supported vouchers contain only the selected payroll liability and its bank movement; mixed payments need separate review. The voucher must not already be assigned to payroll or an expense claim. Use the refund action when linking money returned.

For a linked voucher, Ta bort koppling removes only the payroll assignment, preserving the original cash entry. Its dated history remains visible. A new assignment cannot precede that release or the latest event for the payable. Historical payroll balances start including linked cash on the assignment date, while the history retains the original bank date. Correcting the underlying voucher through the ledger also updates the payroll balance and checks dependent refunds.

Use Registrera återbetalning for money actually returned, up to the amount still paid. Use Korrigera post to reverse an incorrectly recorded payment with a date and explanation; this is an accounting correction, not a bank refund. Correct a dependent refund before its original payment. History retains both the original entry and its correction. Dates cannot precede the latest event for that payable or lie in the future. Closed accounting periods remain protected.

If balances change while the form is open, close it and reopen the current payment review before trying again. Repeating the same request does not add a second payment. Older payroll postings without retained settlement evidence are excluded from this recording flow and require review of their original accounting first.

This is not yet a complete payroll processing service. Electronic filing is not connected. Imported entitlements, termination calculations, unsupported tax-card cases, annual limits and legacy payment recovery still require review. The remaining-balance check does not certify those calculations.
