Q: Checking information

You should check the information in your software so that any potential problems in your payroll data are brought to your attention. You can then address any problems and avoid incorrect information being sent to HMRC with your RTI submissions.

We recommend that you run the Health Check regularly throughout the year. It is particularly useful before you:

• Submit data to HMRC
• Start your payroll year end process
• Pay your employees
• Produce reports

The following information is checked in your software:

• Employer information
• Employee details
• Processing information
• Program settings
• General information

If you're a Sage Cover customer, you can get more information from Ask Sage Article 12089.

Errors may need correcting before you're able to make RTI submissions.
