Hi, my employee doesn’t have a PPS number yet. She can’t get a meeting with Revenue until end of September. Revenue have told us we have to pay her but at highest rate of tax: 40% PAYE, 8% USC, 6% PRSI, I have set her up as an employee without the need for her PPS number- I left it blank. However, the emergency tax rate Bullet calculates is not high enough- how can I edit this?

Your hacking the system. Bullets just going to give you lots of errors.
The easiest thing to do is get your accountant to run payroll for her.
Then when she’s a PPS number, add her to your P2C file and then upload it to Bullet.
The accountant will only have to run payroll for a month or two.

  1. Hmmm not so helpful for an accounting tool
  2. We don't have an accountant with us regularly other than for end of year accounts etc
  3. Thanks!

    Ronan. Bullets designed to stop people making mistakes. It's designed around workflows so people don't have to learn accounts.
    For us to build that we stick to 99% of common situations. That allows us to keep the workflows simple for the end users.
    In 6 years we haven't had someone looking to add an employee for 6 years.
    If you want an accounting product that does 100% of everything download Sage Line 50. Then you'll see complex accounting products.
    You can manually add people to payroll as your doing but we don't advise it cause it always ends in errors.
    You accountant will be able to setup your employee.
    Thanks. Pete.
  5. "In 6 years we haven't had someone looking to add an employee for 6 years" Not sure what this means.
  6. Right cheers

    As in your asking for a workflow we don't have.
    In six years we haven't had this request so that's why there isn't a workflow. That all.
  8. It was just a question. You seemed to have an attitude about it straight off the bat- not insulting the product, merely asking a question
  9. Also, I add all of our employees to ROS so makes little difference if I also add them here manually- details will be the same!

    No attitude Ronan. Just explaining the situation.
