Important: RPN information

When you retrieve RPNs during reprocessing, Sage 50 Payroll Ireland retrieves the latest information available from Revenue. It doesn't retrieve the RPN values that existed when you processed the original pay periods.

To review the original RPN information for each period, go to Direct Payroll Reporting, then select RPN Logs.

You need to manually update employee tax details during reprocessing, including:

  • Tax status
  • Tax credits
  • Standard rate cut off points
  • USC values
  • Local Property Tax (LPT) values

For more information, see manually enter tax credits, USC and LPT details.
