Modular payroll enhancements

Absence management

For any employer, good absence management is key. Knowing who’s off and why helps you plan for the future and take action in time to make a difference.

Staying ahead of the game

The absence management module works with you to make sense of your absence data. It includes full absence history, as well as generating SSP payments.

You can monitor and analyse all types of absence, from jury service and holiday, to sickness, in hours, days, half days or weeks. Bringing clarity to your absence data helps you take corrective action, for example where stress may be rife in a department, or ‘Monday Morning Syndrome’ has taken hold.

Maternity, paternity and adoption pay

Keeping up with legislation can be a tall order, especially when it comes to parental pay.

Doing the hard work for you

Our maternity, paternity and adoption pay module not only keeps you on top of legislation, but also automates all necessary calculations for you. For example, once you’ve entered the date of the expected birth, the earliest dates for maternity leave, payments (like SSP, SMP and SAP) and other details are all worked out without any effort from you.

Keeping up with change

We know that things can change, for example if an employee returns to work sooner than scheduled. In this scenario you can recalculate payments quickly and easily and keep records of all the different pay rates that apply. These details are automatically transferred into the main payroll system.

If you’re also using our personnel module, information can be transferred seamlessly from there, to help you keep all your records consistent and up-to-date.

P11D

Collecting and storing information on taxable benefits can be a complex and time-consuming job, but it doesn’t have to be.

All benefits and all sizes

Our P11D module allows you to easily record and retrieve information on a whole range of benefits, including pensions, student loans and car allowances and all in accordance with the forms from HMRC. So it doesn’t matter how many benefits or employees you need to take care of, the P11D module will help you do it. 

Or let us do it for you

Why not find out how we can manage your P11D processing for you? It’s one less thing to worry about.

Payslip history

On the day to day, payroll processing is your greatest concern. But what about when someone queries their payments?

An archive for payslip data

The payslip history module gives you immediate access to all previous payments. You can treat it like an archive for dipping into whenever you’re answering payroll queries, so you’re confident in your response. That could be information on multiple payslips over a range of tax years, or just a single detail about an individual’s pay.

Calculations over time

Not only can you retrieve the information you need as soon as you need it, but you’ll also be able to automatically calculate sums over different periods of time. For example, you may want to know payments, deductions and cumulative totals within a given tax year, or year on year to compare.

So you make better sense of your data.

Super payroll

Processing across multiple organisations and payrolls can be a time-consuming process. So what if we could make light work of this?

Flexible payrolls

The super payroll module is a highly flexible tool that allows you to run payrolls in the way that’s best suited to your business. That could be running the same routine across multiple payrolls, or processing more than one payroll at the same time.

When managing more than one organisation’s payroll, you’ll often need to compare performance, which is why we include sophisticated reports to allow you to do just that.

Extensive and flexible payroll features

Our payroll module is designed to assist you with each and every area of payroll management. Helping you complete all payroll tasks accurately and well within time.

From gross-to-net calculations and payslip history, to payment and deduction formulae, we offer:

  • Multiple gross-to-net calculations
  • Payslip file creation and individual payslip previews
  • Unlimited payslip history
  • BACS file creation and payments to employees
  • Statutory payments (SSP, SMP, SPP, SAP)
