Saving the payroll software into the same accounts folder as the self employed bookkeeping spreadsheets is all that is required to integrate the payroll. Payroll integration means that when the gross wages are entered into the payroll file the wages costs and the employers national insurance contributions are automatically included in the business expenses and deducted from sales income. The payroll software also has a paye administration file that automatically completes the HMRC paye tax forms including the annual employers return and also produces wages and payslips which can be printed on plain stationery to avoid specialist payslip stationery expenditure.
