Thanks. But I did say in my post that I was looking into this, I never said I was going to try figure out payroll myself. The post is asking about which software people suggest.Payroll calculations can be get complicated between pay, tax, PRSI and USC calculations - the regulations, reliefs and tax rules change every year, if not more often, and unless you are an expert it is simpler and easier to let a specialist payroll software company, such as Sage Payroll, handle this activity. It can be be online as a service or inhouse on your PC using a payroll package.
As for using the same software package as your accountant, this simplifies the exchange of information between you and your accountant. This means that they do not have to spend as much time entering/collecting data and presumably will charge less as the work is less
Again. I never said I was going to do it myself. The whole post is asking about software.If you are going to prepare the payroll yourself Brightpay is easy to use. It links in with a few software packages.
Using the software that your accountant uses is probably a good start
Since PAYE modernisation was introduced in 2019, that's exactly what it is.Payroll is not just about inputting a figure and doing a bank transfer.
Although I make some money from doing payrolls, I think businesses are far better off looking after that themselves.If you don't know how PAYE works from an employer's point of view, then maybe ask your accountant to do it for you.
