STEP 3 - BACK-UP DATA FILES
 
It is very important to take a backup to an external drive in order to protect your payroll. Taking a backup to an external drive ensures that your payroll is saved elsewhere and can be used to reinstate your payroll if you have PC breakdown or crash.
We strongly recommend NOT taking a backup to the C: drive as this does NOT protect your payroll software.

  • Click backup

Email payslips

A new feature allows the easy email of payslips to employees seamlessly directly from the payroll to the employee.

This email facility does not use your own Email account to send these payslips, they are sent directly via the Thesaurus server, without the requirement for the sender to access their email account.

Therefore a list of emailed payslips is not created, for this reason the employer should add their email address to their company details to whom a copy of each emailed payslip will be sent.

File> Amend Company Details>

Enter the email address, this can be amended at any time.

To set up the email address of an employee to which the payslip will be emailed go to
