How do I correct e@syFile™ error: Code 4120 may not be completed if the employee is under 65 years?

In accordance with the SARS BRS document, this error indicates that an employee who is younger than 65 years or older on the last day of the year of assessment, is not entitled to additional medical expenses tax credit in respect of medical scheme contributions paid or deemed paid by the employee for himself and/or his dependants. 

​To correct this error, create a February interim (correction) run to reverse the amount on tax code 4120 and allocate these amounts to the correct IRP5 code on the correction payslip. Alternatively, correct the affected employee's birth date under the Personal tab on the Basic Profile screen if they qualify for these tax credits.
