As companies grow it can become difficult to manage your payroll, especially if all employees are grouped together.
Using Sage 50 Payroll you can record the departments and cost centres within your business. You can then use this information to group your employees, making it easier to find employees in the employee list, or sort employees when running reports.
Note: There isn't any limit to the number of departments or cost centres you create, but an employee can only belong to a single department and cost centre.
1. Company > Settings > Analysis.
2. To create a new department or cost centre, click below the last department or cost centre name in the list. Enter the reference and name in the boxes provided.
3. To amend an existing department or cost centre > select the relevant department or cost centre > make the necessary changes and press the TAB key to move to the next box.
4. Use the Employee Analysis boxes to record, and then report on, employee information specific to your business. For example, if your company has more than one location, you may want to record where each employee is based.
5. To save your changes > OK.
To assign the information to the relevant employees. See Recording employee analysis details
