Running payroll

Employees first

Open Payroll, choose a client and add employees — name, tax code, NI number, annual salary and pay frequency.

Run a pay period

Choose Weekly, Fortnightly or Monthly, set the pay date and run payroll. Every active employee gets a computed payslip:

• Gross pay
• Income tax (PAYE) using the tax-code allowance and 20%/40% bands
• National Insurance (Class 1)
• Pension (5% auto-enrolment)
• Net pay

Payslips & reports

Use Email payslips to send each employee their payslip, and Email report to send the run summary to the client. If your practice has configured its own SMTP mailbox, emails are sent from it.
