The Job Retention Scheme Module

Access the Job Retention Scheme Module

To access the Job Retention Scheme Module, click Company, then click Job Retention Scheme. If this is greyed out, it can be because you're not logged in as the Manager login so you don't have the necessary access rights in Sage 50cloud Payroll. Another reason that the module is greyed out is because you have set your company as a pension PAYE scheme. This setting should only be used if your data is used to administer pensions and not to process and pay employees. To check if your company is set up as a pension PAYE scheme:

1. Click Company then click Settings.
2. Check if the This is a pension PAYE scheme check box is selected.
   • This should only be used if your data is used to administer pensions and not to process and payroll employees. If this box is selected, the Job Retention Scheme Module will be unavailable. If you process and pay your employees in Sage 50cloud Payroll, do not select this check box.
3. Click OK.

1. Select the pay frequency of who you're furloughing and furlough dates

2. Choose the employees you need to furlough

In this step you can select which employees that you need to furlough and set their employment type as variable pay, fixed pay or, if you want to enter your own value, manual.

For the purpose of your claim, only select the employees that you are furloughing for the same date range and pay frequency. If you need to claim for mixed date ranges, you should select multiple claims for each date range.
