How do I add someone?
- Open PayrollEmployees and choose Add employee.
- Fill in Personal details. Add their Email so payslips reach them.
- Under Employment, set the Employment type, Start date and Pay calendar.
- Choose how they're Paid by: an hourly rate or a salary.
- Choose Add employee.
What tax details do I need?
The answers from their TFN declaration (the tax file number form new staff fill in). Enter the Tax file number, Residency for tax, and whether they claim the tax-free threshold. Billbook works out the tax to withhold from these.
Where does their super go?
Pick one under Super:
- A super fund: enter the fund's details from their choice form.
- Their own SMSF: a self-managed fund, with its bank account and Electronic service address (ESA).
- Not chosen yet: fill this in before their first pay.
Paying extra super, like salary sacrifice? Open Extra super, and SG exemptions.
Can I split their pay across accounts?
Yes. Under Bank accounts, choose Add an account. The last account gets whatever's left.
What's a pay template?
What they're normally paid each pay. Open their record, choose Add a line under Pay template, then Save template. Pay runs start from it, and you can still change any pay before you post it.
