How to resolve the issue when you can't tick or untick 'Manual or e@syFile Issued' on Sage Payroll Professional. The field is inactive for any input.
You want to exclude or include an employee in your IRP5 export. You can't access the 'Manual/e@syFile Issued' field to tick (exclude) or untick (include) an employee.
The live run IRP5 export deactivates the field for any input. When you can't access the field, you completed a live run already.

- Remove the certificate number in the following fields (dependent on your export option):
- Periodic Reconciliation (mid-year): Last Periodic No.

2. Reset the live run:

- Remove the numbers in the following fields (dependent on your export option):

TIP: Reset the live run in all companies if you include multiple companies.
3. Tick or untick 'Manual/e@syFile Issued' field on employee:
