You can only submit your pension data directly through Sage Payroll if your provider is:

• Nest
• Peoples pension
• Smart

Other providers require a manual process. This process is specific to the provider, but will be one of the methods listed below.

1. Payroll And Pension Data Interface Standard (PAPDIS) file - You can generate this file after you've completed your pay run. You can then upload it to your providers pension portal.
2. Provider specific template -  Your provider can ask you to fill in a file/template for you to upload to their website. You can generate a pension report from Sage, which will give you the figure you need to help you fill this in.
3. Manually enter the figures on your provider portal - The pension report available in Sage will give you the required information. This will allow you to manually enter the figures into your provider portal. 

 NOTE: Speak with your pension provider to confirm which process they support, or for help uploading any file.
