Once you have created an employer, you are ready to add a PAYE scheme.

To create a PAYE scheme

  1. Within Cintra iQ, go to Payroll > Payroll Setup > Employer Setup.

  2. Select an employer, then click Open.

  3. Click the PAYE & Payrolls tab.

  4. Within the PAYE Schemes section, any existing schemes will be displayed (double-click to edit). To create a new scheme, right-click and select New.

  5. Within the New PAYE scheme window, you must enter the following information:

    • PAYE Scheme is for test purposes only: Tick this box if you do NOT want to send this scheme's details to HMRC.

    • HMRC Accounts Office Reference: Enter the 13 character reference number. The 4th character should be either P or X.

    • HMRC Office Area Number: This field is filled in automatically, based on the reference number above.

    • HMRC Office Name: Enter the name, if known.

    • Employer PAYE reference: The first section is populated with the HMRC Office Area Number. Enter the remaining characters into the second section.

    • HMRC Bank Account: Select the appropriate HMRC office or Cheque/Other.

    • For more information, see What are employer details?
