How to set up automatic journals from Sage Payroll to Sage Accounting.
Subscribing to both Sage Accounting and Payroll saves time when you pay employees. You can post:
- A salary journal including the employee net pay payment
- A journal for your HMRC payment details
- A pension payment journal including the payment to your pension provider
You need to have Sage Accounting and Payroll linked with the same email address.
CAUTION:
If you use bank feeds, your bank already imports these payments. To avoid duplicates, match them to existing records or delete them during the import.
