Step 1: Select Your Payroll Cycle
Click on the Monthly Cycle option
Step 2: Choose Your Pay Period/Schedule
Select the pay date you normally pay your employees and select the date period your first payroll covers.
Step 3: PAYE Setup
This is where you decide to enable or disable PAYE. When you run your payroll, BizEdge will automatically calculate the PAYE tax that should be deducted from each employee's salary, based on their earnings and tax band.
Step 4: NHF Setup
This is where you decide to enable or disable NHF
