taking someone on in the new year. and have been to the accountant and been given all the sheets to work out tax and NI and all that, is there any programs that do this for you?

[Ian Rochester]

Quickbooks, sage, or any good payroll software

[LWC]

You can enrole on a course so you know how to use them too

[Ian Rochester]

Quickbooks, it's the simplest one for non accounting people, takes a few minutes each week to process payslips.

The Inland Revenue do a CD each year that has many many helpful things on it including working out PAYE and NI - even fills in a P11 Deductions Working Sheet which you need at year end.
Go to  http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/  and see the middle blue box at top of page, 2nd down Employer CD Rom.
Something very useful from the Inland revenue is this CD - but don't loose it!
