Start of Year 2024

The purpose of Start of Year is to make sure all your employees are paid correctly from the beginning of the new school year. The Start of Year screen opens in EdPay on Monday, 4 December 2023.

If this is your first time doing Start of Year, or you haven't done one recently, the step-by-step process will be a handy reminder.

You can also download our Start of Year 2024 Guide (PDF, 1.5MB) or watch the Start of Year video (4mins, opens in Vimeo.com).

There is a tool to help you decide whether to make Start of Year changes in the EdPay Start of Year screen, your normal EdPay processes or by form, go to Start of Year actions tool
