Automatically post your payroll data in Sage Accounting

Summary

How to set up automatic journals from Sage Payroll to Sage Accounting.

Description

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.
