IRP 5 ERROR PROVIDENT FUND

Good day,

I am receiving the following error for a deceased/terminated employee:

If tax total 4473 (Prov Fund Contribution) has a value, then 3825 (Prov fund Fringe benefit) and 4003 (Prov Fund) must have a value

Please assist

Kind regards

Hasinah

    Good morning ,

    I am sorry about the loss of your employee.

    That exception means that you have processed a provident fund company contribution without processing its corresponding Fringe Benefit code (6411).  The only ways that you can correct it is to either:

    1. Restore a backup to that period and add in the fringe benefit code.  You will then have to recapture every period between the period you restored to until you get to year end.
    2. Exclude the employee from the Certificates and manually create a certificate on E@syfile for them.
    3. Contact your Sage Business Partner to do a chargeable datafix for you.

    If you don't have a Sage Business Partner, you can give us a call and we can help you do the correction so you can meet the deadline for your submission.
