Start running payrolls before printing P60s

IRIS Payroll Basics

If you need to start running payrolls in the new tax year, before printing P60s, perform the Year-end Restart and then run payrolls in the new tax year as normal.

When you perform the Year-end Restart the company is copied automatically.

When you are ready to print your P60s:

1. Open the required company.

2. Go to the Year-end menu, select Use Last Year’s Company Data. This restores the data to what it was before the Year-end Restart.

   A confirmation message is displayed. When the previous year’s data is in use, the tax year is displayed in the title bar after the company name.

3. Print P60s.

4. Once finished, return to your current data. Go to the Year-end menu, select Use Last Year’s Company Data.

   Do not perform a second Year-end Restart when you are using last year’s data.

The Last Year copy is NOT a substitute for your end of year backup. When the payroll makes the automatic copy during the Year-end Restart, data already stored in the Last Year folder for the current company is overwritten. This happens every time a Year-end Restart is done for that company; consequently, only the previous tax year’s copy is ever available.
