| Create a new employee record |
Description | To help you manage your employees' information, you create records for them. You can enter their personal details, employment details, payment method and much more. TIP: Need to add more employees to your license to set up new records? - Leave your details and we'll be in touch. |
Resolution | Before you start - If you're moving to Sage Payroll part-way through the year from another software provider, you must Enter Employee Year to Date Values
- Enter a start date in the current tax year. If you enter a start date in a future tax year, a submission error will appear. This also appears as an error in the Validate your payroll data option
Create the employee record NOTE: If an employee left your company then rejoins in the same tax year, you must reactivate their existing employee record. Don't create a new record for them. - Click Processing then click Employee Details.
- Click New, then complete the relevant details in the Personnel tab.
TIP: Mandatory fields show an asterisk *. Complete all mandatory fields before you can create the new record. - Click Next > >, then click Save.
Next steps - If the employee hasn't worked in Ireland before, they need to register their first employment via the myAccount portal on the Revenue website
- If the employee is registered for PAYE and has a PPS number, use the Retrieve Revenue Payroll Notifications (RPNs) option to request their RPN details
- If there is a delay in the new RPN, you can save timesheets for a limited time, keeping the employee on Emergency tax status
- If Revenue has not issued an RPN after two to three weeks, we recommend that you encourage the employee to contact Revenue immediately
