Hi, I've just recently installed 12Pay on my mahchine and am looking to run off the payrolls for our registered charity. The one emplyee we have is on tax code BR an is paid £20 anual salary. I've entered the details into the system and every one of his pay slips comes up with 7pence more on his NI than the company we've been using who charge £20 per month (you can see why we've stopped using them!) How come this small amount of pence is wrong? Looks like our accountant used to use.... Sage for their payrolls. thanks

 Chris,

Please check out Q1 and Q2 on this page... 

Basically Sage (unlike all other payroll software that we're aware of) duplicates HMRCs paper NI tables, whereas everyone else (including HMRC themselves on their website) uses an HMRC specification called the "exact percentage method". So you will see small differences in NI, up to a few p/week or /month. I wouldn't worry about them.

You should always get a perfect match on PAYE though.

Yeah I started by reading tha sticky. Thought it might have been the answer. So in other words... he's got 3 pay slips for this financial year from our accountant. I've setup the software of yours to start with 1st May 2009 and on the following 3 it's 7 pence out. When we get the paying in book back from the accountant would you just ignore the difference and continue sending HMRC the employees contributions along with the employers contributions? i.e. don't do anything about the 7 pences and just continue as normal? Cheers

 I'd just send the future payments in as per 12Pay's P32 report. If you enter the payments you've already made (once you've got a premium licence (private message coming about that...) you can enter these on the Payments tab of the employer form using the Payment History button) the system will automatically show you the balance owing on P32 report runs.

Then when you do your year end P35 everything will automatically tie up.
