If you use the HMRC basic PAYE tools then please be aware that there is now an update available from the GOV.UK website.

This new version includes updates to the automatic update facility, and needs to be downloaded and installed directly from the website.  You shouldn’t attempt to download by selecting the ‘Check for updates/Check now’ option in your basic PAYE tools.  Just like with any software, we recommend you backup your payroll data before downloading and installing the update.

HMRC strongly suggest that users should download this update BEFORE 6th April 2015 so that the upgrade for the next tax year , due in early April, can be applied automatically.

For help and support with your payroll year end using the Basic PAYE Tools or Sage Payroll then please get in touch.
