Employee records

User-friendly wizards guide you through the process of adding new starters (this can also be completed via the Self-service facility in SelectHR). Tab-style record cards allow you to quickly build up a comprehensive store of employee information, including employment history and qualifications, holiday tracking, individual pay components and an employee photograph.

Statutory requirements

As you'd expect, all your statutory requirements are covered. SelectPay handles your calculations automatically, making it very easy to manage, for example, Directors' Pay, NI and Student Loans.

Pensions

Pensions can be entered as a fixed sum or as a percentage of salary, and Additional Voluntary Contributions made at any time. COMP and COSR pensions can also be specified and PAYE, NIC and SSP tables are formatted in line with HMRC conventions. So that you stay on top of your commitments, SelectPay shows a monthly report of all payments due for PAYE and National Insurance.

P11D processing

Company car and loans are dealt with automatically while all other calculations and reports associated with taxable benefits are easy to manage. P11D submissions can be made using traditional printed reports or online filing.

Flexible paytypes & frequencies

SelectPay provides a comprehensive selection of the most commonly used paytypes and frequencies as standard. You can create and amend these as required, making it easy to handle changes to staffing levels and varying pay dates. You can also group specific records and ensure payment is made on selected dates - useful when you have a particularly large payroll or when you have many subsidiaries to deal with.

Multiple payments and allowances, such as bonuses, can be easily accounted for, and expressed as a weekly or monthly value. Salary increases and deductions are calculated automatically and you can preview the effect any calculation has on net pay at any time.

Non-payable paytypes, such as holiday, can be linked to any deductions, quickly showing you the outstanding value of deductions against time accrued.

Deductions

Multiple deductions, such as season ticket loans, can be activated for specific periods, shut down when the balance is paid and easily reactivated.

Electronic submission

SelectPay offers full two-way communication with the Government Gateway, making it easy to meet HMRC guidelines on electronic submission. SelectPay comes with a wide range of electronic forms as standard; items you can send include: P11D, P14, P35, P45 (1&3) and P46 (car).

Epayslips

This popular function makes payroll output more efficient by replacing paper-based payslips with an electronic version that you can send by email. Tight security settings ensure that epayslips can only be opened using a password known to the user; SelectPay also contains a 'wizard' to guide you through your chosen method of delivery and output. You can even add messages to the payslip to keep staff up-to-date, for example, 'early payroll this month.' A final delivery report ensures no-one gets missed off, and you can easily view and re-send payslips from previous periods.

Using the Self-service facility in SelectHR, employees can also view and print their pay information online, further reducing bottlenecks in your payroll department.
