Hi Jeffrey Wade
In advanced payroll to set up to pay staff for the job retention scheme, you need to set up a pay category the steps you need to follow are below. If you are paying the staff the 80 percent HMRC has set up a calculator to work out the amounts which is available here.
- Start by going to Payroll settings.
- Now select Pay Categories, and then Add.
- Set the pay category as Taxable, and Niable.
- Go back to your list of Employees.
- Select a furloughed employee.
- On the left, go to Pay rates.
- Select your newly created category, and select Show in Pay Run.
