# How do I calculate the payroll after the payroll transfer?

caOnce you have created multiple **Payrolls** for an employer within **Cintra iQ**, you can transfer an employee between payroll memberships by moving the employee from one payroll to another payroll, providing the **PAYE** reference number is the same for all payrolls.

> [!NOTE]
> For more information about how to associate a payroll to the selected PAYE scheme, see [How do I associate a payroll with a PAYE scheme?](/iq/docs/how-do-i-create-a-paye-scheme-and-assign-a-payroll-to-it)

You can transfer an employee to an alternative payroll under the same **PAYE** reference number.

> [!WARNING]
> **Important:** Ensure that you have created additional payrolls for the same Pay Scheme before you try to transfer an employee.

If the payroll membership changed mid-month, you need to calculate payslips on both payrolls. In the **Payroll Calculation** form, calculate each record that has two different payroll names and matching clock numbers. Form ore information about calculating payrolls, see [**How Do I Perform a Payroll Calculation?**](/iq/docs/how-do-i-perform-a-payroll-calculation)
