Monthly Summary

This report summarises your Tax, NI, SSP, SMP, Tax Credits, and Student Loans for the month. If required, you can record Inland Revenue payments so that you can see exactly what is outstanding at any time.

SSP Diary

You simply flag sick days on an employee's Diary. Superpay checks for PIW's, Qualifying Days, Waiting Days, 28 week limit, etc. and automatically calculates the SSP.

SMP

You enter the employee's EWC (i.e. when her baby is due) and Superpay does all the necessary calculations.

Tax Credits

Tax Credits are paid automatically.  You only have to enter the details when you are notified.

Student loans

Student loans can be deducted automatically.

Car benefits

You enter car registration details for Superpay to calculate the car benefit.  Note that from April 2001 car NI is paid through P11D's.

Deduction cards

Superpay can list all the payment details made to each employee in a format similar to the manual P11 deduction cards.

Global tax code changes

When there are budget changes, Superpay can automatically increase (or decrease) each employee's tax code e.g. increase all L codes by 30, all H codes by 46.

Updates

PAYE or NI updates are sent out automatically to all end-users. After the first year, there is a small charge for this service.

Year end

You can print all your year end PAYE documents on free Inland Revenue forms or send in returns on disk.

Unique payslip screen

Superpay displays each employee's payslip for you to enter the number of hours etc. The tax, NI, pension and Net Pay are instantly displayed. This minimises errors since you can immediately see the effect of changes you make and see the payslip exactly as it will be printed.

Flexible pay

Each employee can have up to 11 gross pay items, 7 after tax items, and 4 pension contributions on a payslip.

Multi-company

With Superpay bureau users can set up and run all their payroll clients quickly and easily. For network installations, Superpay's `company locking' feature allows different companies to be processed simultaneously.

Net to gross

You can enter an employee's Net Pay and Superpay will calculate the gross pay, tax, NI and pension needed to achieve that Net Pay. This is invaluable for cash paid employees or for working out the Gross Amount of Directors' drawings. Net bonuses can also be calculated.

Payment methods

Employees can be paid by cash, credit transfer, cheque, Autopay (e.g. Bobs, Payflow etc.) and BACS. Links to popular on-line banking systems can be created as well.

Passwords

Up to four levels of Password keep your data confidential.

Pensions

Each employee can have up to four different pension contributions, including a Stakeholder Pension. These can be either percentages or flat amounts, and can be deducted from gross before or after the tax calculation.

Payslip headings

You can set up 99 different Payslip Headings for each company. Totals for these headings are printed in an easy to read tabular format. If required, calculations of Tax, NI, Pension, and Holiday Pay accrual can be individually excluded from a heading to allow for non-standard items such as:

  • Profit Related Pay
  • Construction Industry Holiday Pay
  • Directors' telephone bills
  • Other items such as a Christmas bonus which you want to exclude from pension calculations
