Set up and process a net to gross payment
Description

The usual way to pay employees is to specify their gross pay and then deduct tax and national insurance (NI). This is known as a gross to net payment.

If you want to specify the amount of net pay your employee receives, in Sage 50 Payroll you can use the net to gross option that calculates the amount of tax and NI due on the net amount you specify. Net payments types can't be used with Salary sacrifice pensions.

NOTE: A net to gross payment is different to a net payment. You can follow the steps in our handy guide to Set up and process a net payment.
