3.1 When Do I Install the Update?

Your axis payroll software must be updated before you will be able to perform the payroll 2023/24 year end.

You do not need to install this update until you have completed the final period of the year, however it is safe to install the update at any time.
 

3.2 Dates Of Birth

In order to allocate employees to the correct NI category, you must ensure that you hold the correct date of birth against each active employee record.
 

3.3 Employee Addresses

In order for HMRC to apply Scottish Rate of Income Tax and Welsh Rate of Income Tax correctly, it is important that employee addresses are kept up to date.
 

3.4 Employer Bulletin

You are advised to read the Employer Bulletin: February 2024 and Employer Bulletin March 2024 which are available for download from the GOV.UK website.
 

3.5 Year End Stationery

P60 bulk stationery was withdrawn by HMRC in 2021. P60's are printed to PDF for printing and distribution to your employees unless you are using our supported Paperless Payroll interfaces.
 

3.6 P45 Stationery

Similar to the P60, bulk stationery for P45 was withdrawn by HMRC in 2021.

P45's are now printed to PDF.
 

3.7 Week 53 / Week 1

The 2023/2024 tax year includes a Week 53 for weekly payrolls where the pay date lands on Thursday 4th April or Friday 5th April 2024. 

 
 

3.8 Employment Allowance

If you have been eligible to claim the 'Employment Allowance'  and have not yet submitted your claim for 2023-2024, you will need to go to 'Amend Employer Details' for the payroll data set through which you wish to claim the allowance and tick the 'Employment Allowance' option. Note: if you are operating more than one payroll data set, you should only claim through one data set.

Your final Calculate Monthly Remittance for the year will then include your claim for the allowance. You will then need to set 'Employment Allowance claim' to 'Yes' when submitting your final end of year EPS to advise HMRC that you are making the claim.
