The HRPay Product Range

Irish Version

Payroll for the Republic of Ireland - 2009 Edition *

HRPay is a family of products which provide Payroll and Time & Attendance functionality for small to medium sized businesses. Unlike other products on the market, it retains all of the historical information that is entered on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis and uses this information to provide additional functionality to the user.

This makes HRPay more than a payroll package. A quick look at the features will show that, compared to standard payroll packages, HRPay automatically handles a multitude of tasks that usually require manual intervention, or additional software.

Naturally, HRPay handles all Revenue returns and forms, such as P30, P35, P45(1), P45(3), P46, and P60, and is fully ROS-compliant. In addition, companies who have been requested to make a CSO EHECS return will be glad to know that this is also included in the HRPay reports.

As with other Aquila Technology products, HRPay is based on the award-winning Borland database, combined with a native code compiled application, to give unparalleled speed and functionality in a compact installation. The six members of the HRPay family are:

* Functionality to handle the new Income Levy, which was introduced in the October 14th Budget, is included in this release. HRPay also handles the exemption which was announced subsequently for employees on the National Minimum Wage. However, in the absence of precise details from the Revenue Commissioners regarding the basis on which this tax will be calculated, recorded, and reported, and the suggestion that the scope of the tax may be further changed in the Finance Bill, an update to HRPay may be required to deal with any additional changes.

The Budget speech also contained a reference to a proposed change in the basis on which company car BIK will be calculated. No information is available from the Revenue Commissioners regarding any such change and HRPay continues to calculate this benefit using the existing rules. We anticipate (hope) that the BIK changes will not come into effect in 2009.

Because of the changes required to handle the Income Levy, existing users will require an updated copy of HRPay. This will be issued on CD to all existing users in early December.

UK version

Payroll for Britain & Northern Ireland - 2008/09 Edition

The UK version of HRPay has completed testing for HMRC Internet Recognition and has been approved for all of the documents listed on the right.

Internal testing for compliance with the HMRC Payroll Standard is complete and the off-site phase of HMRC testing has been completed successfully. The final phase of HRMC testing - on-site testing and audit - is scheduled for November and, all going well, we hope to achieve accreditation by the end of November.

Because of the delay in achieving Payroll Standard accreditation, we have decided to release HRPay on a phased basis.

  1. On achieving HMRC Internet Recognition - 50% of normal retail price*.
  2. On achieving HMRC Payroll Standard - normal retail price*.
The unaccredited version of HRPay is being released in the belief that it currently meets, or exceeds, all of the requirements of the Payroll Standard and that we will achieve accreditation. It is being made available at a reduced price to users who wish to try the product, on the understanding that it is not fully approved by HMRC and is subject to change. However, at this point, we believe that any changes would be minimal.

Once we receive Payroll Standard accreditation for HRPay, it will be released as a commercial product. However, all users of the unaccredited version will be given a full subscription for the 2008/2009 tax year and will be eligible for full support and updates.

If you are interested in trying HRPay before it achieves Payroll Standard accreditation, please use the download link at the bottom of the page or the Download menu at the top of this page, but do it soon because it won't be available at this price for much longer.

You might ask "Why should I take a chance on an unaccredited payroll package when there are so many others on the market?" That's a fair question but, have a look at the specs or, better still, download the self-running User Guide and see what you could be getting. We think you will be impressed.

The UK version of HRPay is modelled on the Irish versions which provide Payroll and Time & Attendance functionality for small to medium sized businesses and have been on the market for 6 years. It has been extensively re-engineered to cover the requirements of the UK market, while retaining the features that make it one of the most intuitive and powerful systems available. Unlike many other products on the market, it retains all of the historical information that is entered on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis and uses this information to provide additional functionality to the user.

This makes HRPay more than a payroll package. A quick look at the features will show that, compared to standard payroll packages, HRPay automatically handles a multitude of tasks that usually require manual intervention, or additional software.

Naturally, HRPay handles all Revenue returns and forms, such as P9D, P11D, P14, P30, P32, P35, P38A, P38S, P45(1), P45(3), P46, P46(Car), P160, WNU, and P60. Returns can be paper-based or you can use the integrated Internet Filing features to make returns online, including IRmark capability for in-year submissions. In addition, it can download all notices from the Data Provisioning Service, i.e. P6, P9, SL1, SL2, Annual Reminders, and Notifications, and apply the changes to the employee records.

This version of HRPay is based on the DBISAM database, combined with a native code compiled application, to give unparalleled speed and functionality in a compact installation. It is available in 5, 20, and 100 employee versions and upgrading from one product to another is simple. All versions of HRPay are 100% compatible.
