PAYROLL RECORDS AND PAYMENTS
Payroll
Prepare payslips, record payroll costs and keep track of payments to employees and payroll authorities.
PiggyZen uses the pay, deduction and company-contribution amounts you enter. You still need an accountant to calculate PAYE and other applicable payroll amounts, and to prepare and submit the required information to tax authorities. PiggyZen does not perform those calculations or submissions for you.
Payroll is unavailable in the Free edition. A payroll run records wages and amounts owed; paying employees and settling payroll liabilities are separate steps.
Employee Management
Employee details, payroll types, salary payments and records.
Payroll Runs & Payslips
Monthly or hourly pay, repeated runs and payslip delivery.
Deductions & Liabilities
Deduction accounts, company contributions and amounts still to pay.
Before your first run
- Set up employees with the appropriate payroll type.
- Create the deduction and contribution accounts you need.
- Obtain the correct pay, deduction and employer-contribution figures from your accountant.
- Prepare and review the run, then record it and issue payslips.
- Make payments through your bank and record them separately in PiggyZen.
