Printing Payslips

After finalising the pay period, simply click the ‘Print Payslips’ button within the 'Payroll' function.


1) On the left hand side select the employees for whom you wish to print payslips. Several options for selecting which payslips to print are available by clicking the ‘Select By’ button.

2) Next, select your payslip design from the drop down menu.

3) To further customise your payslips before printing, click the ‘Options’ button on the right hand side. This facility allows you to add or remove certain information on the payslip, for example to add a company logo or an employer address.





4) To preview the payslips before printing, simply select ‘Print Preview’.

5) Select ‘Print’ when ready.

6) Once printed, you will see the date and time they were printed automatically populated under "Last Printed".

7) Payslips can be reprinted at any time.
