This might sound daunting, but most of the information will already be calculated for you automatically. This means you just need to check and update some information to make sure it's right.

If you select more than one employee then open enter payments you can easily select which employee to view:
Click First, Previous, Next or Last to move through the employees you selected
Click Select to view a list of employees. Click the employee you'd like to view and click OK

Enter payment amounts
You can enter values to the Hours/no and Rate columns. Payroll then calculates the total amount of each payment using these values.
If you have a sum to pay on one of your employee's payments, for example a salary payment, you can enter the full amount into the Rate column, and set the Hours/No to one.
Alternatively, you can enter a payment based on a number of hours. Enter the number of hours to the Hours/No column, and enter the hourly rate to pay in the Rate column.
Check employer values
You can easily check employer costs for an employee in enter payments, such as the employer NI and pension contributions.
Simply click the Employer button to check the values, and click OK when you're done.
