About
Besides on boarding new employees individually, you can upload employees using the Bulk Actions Screen. Where a frequency is added, or a new company is registered during the tax year, the system will automatically create an Interim Run to provide you with the option to process year-to-date figures on an employees’ records. This should be done before the first live run.
