This is the core of the program, and the part which is most different from other payroll packages. The main feature of it is that the pay details are entered on a spreadsheet-like table, where you can see all the pay details for previous weeks or months. This makes it much easier to be confident about the figures being entered, as any changes from previous periods are immediately obvious:
A mini-payslip at the bottom of the screen shows the details of the current period, which will automatically update as you change the pay / period / employee etc.. Clicking on the Show Calc button will display full details of the calculations of tax, NIC, attachments, sick pay etc
Employees can have up to 10 hourly rates, and a basic salary in addition to hourly pay.
There are separate screens for sick and maternity pay, pensions, attachments, other additions and disposals, etc. etc.. See "specification" for a full list of all pay elements.
At the touch of a key you can produce a payslip for the current period, or an employee summary for the whole year, or an employer summary for the period. You can enter a target net pay, and the system will calculate the gross pay necessary to produce that net pay. Any week or month can be locked to prevent inadvertent alteration of the data after the pay period has been processed

Payslips

Payslips can be printed on plain A4 paper or onto pre-printed stationery.
The Standard payslip is available as either two or three per page, or as a security self-seal payslip. The three per page layout (DL) has the employee name and address which will show through a DL window envelope.
This payslip can be made to incorporate the employer’s own logo, as shown.
Notes for each employee can also be included on the payslip.
You can print payslips individually, or you can use the Automatic Payroll Run facility which will carry out the desired sequence of actions - for example print two of copies of each payslip, one copy of the employer summary, the employer payslip, the cash makeup, and two copies of the bank BACS instruction, and then lock the current period so that the data cannot be altered inadvertently.
The Payroll Run option can also be set to make the appropriate payroll entries in your Money Manager data file.

Reports

In contrast to most other payroll systems, the P14s, P35s, P11Ds etc. have the same appearance on the screen as the official HMRC forms. They can be printed on plain A4 paper (for your records), or straight onto the blank forms which are available free of charge from the HMRC (for official submissions).

In addition to the standard HMRC forms, Payroll Manager produces a wide variety of other reports which enable the employer to monitor and understand all aspects of the payroll.

CIS

Payroll Manager is designed to handle the new CIS system that comes into effect from April 2007.

It handles online verification of subcontractors, and the online submission of CIS300 Monthly Returns (for which HMRC accreditation has been received).

CIS deductions are calculated as appropriate, and payments can take account of the cost of materials, VAT, CITB Levy, retentions, fees, insurance charges, subs and holiday funds.

CIS subcontractor payslips are produced, as well as (where necessary) subcontractor invoices.

CIS deductions are included on the Employer's Payslip (P30), Employer's Payment Record (P32) and the Employer's End-of-Year Statement (P35).

Updates

Payroll Manager is sold on a licence basis. You purchase a licence to use the program for a set period (generally 12 calendar months).

Improvements (often made at the request of users) and legislative changes are incorporated in the program on a regular basis.

A current licence enables the user to download updates from the internet as often as required (we recommend every month or two). An program menu item will make a connection to the Moneysoft website and check to see whether an update is necessary. If it is, the appropriate files are downloaded onto your computer.

Users without an internet connection may request an updated CD at any time, for which there is a charge of £5 charge per disc sent.
