1.0 Purpose of Document
This guide is intended to assist new users to process a basic payroll using Moorepayhr Core Bureau Payroll, however it is not a comprehensive training guide. This guide is designed to be a prompt through your first Moorepay payroll runs or to act as a refresher whenever needed. If you have any questions that this guide doesn’t answer, please speak to your Moorepay contact.

3.0 Entering A New Starter
New starters can be entered in 2 ways; using the Hire option or the New Starter Wizard.
Both can be accessed from the Personnel Menu.
3.1 Hire Screen
When using the Hire screen all required information is contained within one main area.
Work through the page. Anything with a red * is a mandatory field.
This screen will show a default Tax Code of 0T W1/M1. This would need to be changed manually or entered
in the HMRC Details in the Employee Tab within the Payroll Menu.
You will find more information about Uploading HMRC Documents in section 11 of this guide.
Once all data has been entered you must select the Save option at the top of the page.
Further information regarding PAYE Tax and National Insurance can be found on the Government website
www.gov.uk

3.2 New Starter Wizard
This is simply an alternative way to enter a new starter. Instead of one single screen, you work your way
through the individual tabs. You must complete and save each one before you can move on to the next.
There is no right or wrong way to enter a new starter – whether you choose to use Hire or New Starter
Wizard is simply down to personal preference.
If employees are going to be using ESS (Employee Self Service), you must also enter their email address in
the Contact Details screen from the menu option highlighted below.
Page 7 – Last Updated 09/03/2020

You must also create a Security Profile for them.
This is done from the Security Menu – Define Users.
Selecting the above menu option will take you to the screen below.
Once the information has been saved, two emails will be sent to the employee. One e-mail will contain a link
to the system, along with their username, and the second e-mail will contain a temporary password.
More information on Security Profiles can be found in the main Moorepayhr manual.

Change the Payroll Status to Leaver and enter the Leave Date and a Leave Reason (if required).
When payroll is processed the employee will then be paid up to and including the leave date and the P45 will

6.0 Permanent Payment/Deduction Code Changes
From the left-hand menu, select Payroll > Bureau Payroll > Employee > Payment Codes:
Select or search for the employee (as shown in previous screens), then select the Payment or Deduction
code you wish to amend - do this by clicking the magnifying glass to the left of the Pay Codes, then scroll
down to the deduction codes.
This screen is where you will enter recurring payments or deductions. This will also include Earning
Arrestments (for Scotland) and Attachment Orders.
If the payment or deduction code you require does not appear, you will need to contact your Moorepay
representative.
The details entered will depend upon the type of payment or deduction. For example, a Loan deduction will
be entered as a reducing balance.

7.0 Creating A Bulk Timesheet
Timesheets are used to process Temporary Adjustments (payments or deductions that only apply to this
pay period). Overtime, Expenses, Bonuses, and Commission are examples of temporary adjustments.
Timesheets can be entered individually (per employee), but if you have numerous adjustments in a pay
period you may find it is less time consuming to use a Bulk Timesheet where all amendments can be made
at once.
A Bulk Timesheet Template needs to be created first.
From the left-hand menu select Administration > Payroll > Bulk Timesheet Template:
Select New and give the template a Name and a Description, then select the Company and the Template
Type in the window which is now loaded.
Page 13 – Last Updated 09/03/2020
Moorepay Bureau Payroll
Underneath the timesheet, you can select the Payment / Deduction codes by ticking the INCL box you
wish to appear on your template (you can create individual templates or have all required codes on one).
Remember to press SAVE in order to save the template.

Moorepay Bureau Payroll
8.0 Inputting Temporary Adjustments Using Bulk Timesheet Entry
From the Payroll tab in the left-hand menu, select Timesheets > Bulk Timesheet Entry:
Then click Generate A New Form:
Give the form a name (E.g. March Adjustments), select the template you would like to use, and press Save
Page 15 – Last Updated 09/03/2020
Moorepay Bureau Payroll
Now double click on your saved timesheet to open your Bulk Timesheet.
Complete each column as required. This can be Saved if you have further adjustments or changes to make.
Once all data has been entered select Validate and Finalise.
Once the data has been validated select Import to Timesheets.
The bulk entries will then be uploaded to employees’ individual timesheets.
Once uploaded, Bulk Timesheets cannot be re-entered.
Any amendments should be made directly on the individual timesheets.

Moorepay Bureau Payroll
9.0 Inputting Temporary Adjustments Using Single Timesheets
If you don’t have many employees with adjustments or you need to amend adjustments, you can do this from
the Payroll menu, selecting Timesheets > Timesheets:
From the search field, find and select the employee.
Select the appropriate payment or deduction code required and enter the adjustment.
Press Save

11.0 Inputting Statutory Payments
From the left-hand menu, select Payroll > Bureau Payroll > Employee:
Scroll down and you will see the Statutory Payments listed:
Although the data that you will input here will vary, depending on the statutory payment, the process of
recording is the same for all types. Once you have entered the data, you can add KIT days in the KIT Days
box (this is only for recording dates. It will not calculate the pay).
If the employee is to receive no standard pay (salary, basic rate etc) in the statutory period, this would need
to be adjusted in their pay details.
For further guidance please refer to the Moorepay Help Guide or speak to your Moorepay
representative.

18.0 Payroll Cleardown
Before you can move into the next pay period, you must run the Cleardown process. Some people look at
this process as the last part of the payroll process, others see it as the first thing they do to start the new
period.
You will not be able to enter any data in the new pay period until the Cleardown process has been run. You
must ensure that you have all your payroll output, including any printed payslips, P45s etc. before running
the Cleardown process.
From the left-hand menu select Payroll > Bureau Payroll > Processing > Payroll Cleardown:
Select the Company and tick the Please Confirm that you wish to CLEARDOWN box, tick Run Process.
You will receive a warning advising that this process will move the payroll into the next pay period and that
no further adjustments will be able to be made to the current pay period. The process cannot be reversed.
