HI, we use 3rd aprty software (P11D Organiser) at present but are encouraging clients to move to the Staffology platform. We have an issue with the reports which appear to be available, as they lack detail. The P11D system produces consolidate XL spreadsheets for Employers, detailing all benefits processed by employee, provides details of tax due and importantly breaksdown the ER Class1A NIC cost by benefit, in total by Employee and a grand total due to HMRC for the Employer. Staffology does not appear to report in this detail and it does not generate the BACs file for payment of CLAss1A ER NIC. Could this please be developed, ahead of mandatory Payrolling of Benefits, as other systems are ahead of Staffology with this functionality.
Very much agree - would really like to have this all in one place, within the payroll software - as opposed to another software item within the stack. We've used Moneysoft's Payroll Manager and P11D Manager - and this year Staffology... and Staffology is worse by far than the competition for producing the P11Ds - which surprised us. We expected the functionality to at least be close to Payroll Manager - but the P11D(b) report is a CSV only (not suitable to share with a client!) and the P11Ds, particularly for staff for our clients who had departed, could only be either downloaded individually per ee, or as a single PDF with all ee's in it. Also and this is probably our experience with P11Ds as opposed to the software, a great number of the P11D codes don't correspond to a P11D benefit being reported on the P11D(b), but still appearing on the P11Ds. Some simple guidance on this within the platform - or in the (otherwise excellent!) documentation on the platform, would be welcome. And, as mentioned, a BACs file to the connected payment run system would seem to be a very obvious thing to include.
With the soon to be mandated payrolling of benefits, this is going to become much more noticeable. Maybe getting some of these easy fixes in as mentioned here and by others, would be a good idea?
Totally agree with this. The reporting available from Staffology is BASIC to say the least. The P11D functionality lacks detailed guides regarding processing, handling data corrections post year end and lacks detailed reporting. The reports available are limited and lack detail or even relevant data Employee P11 report, does not detail any benefit figures by benefit type or the Class 1A NIC due per benefit/ employee. The lack of detail and variety is highlighted when comparing to our 3rd party system, which would produce CSV/ Xl reports by benefit, detailing the benefit values, cash equivalent and class1A NIC, there were also consolidated reports of all benefits, the ER P11D(B) gives a payment total but when checked, this did not reconcile back to the individual reports Benefits, Cars, Loans - which do not include the Class1A NIC by benefit type. For the P11D functionality to be a leader, the reports, guides and support need serious attention and quickly, the functionality of the P11D is very poor in comparison to the payroll system.
P11d Loans - it is not possible to add multiple items to the P11d calculator to show new loans and loan repayments during the year to accurately calculate the P11d benfit on the system. this portal needs significant improvements
