It is integrated with BrightPay Payroll Software where we process your payroll. Your payroll information is stored online on a secure cloud server and available for you to access anytime. Please see below for a quick guide on using BrightPay Connect
Employer Dashboard
With BrightPay Connect, employers can access an additional layer of data. Employers can access the payslips, calendars and information of all employees in the employer data file.
Reporting is also integrated with BrightPay Connect. All reports can be viewed from within the employer self-service portal, allowing employers to access reports on the go anytime. P30 details are also included, with a record of HMRC payments made and amounts still due to HMRC.
Employers also have the ability to grant access to other users such as their accountant, bookkeeper or other co-workers.
Employees
BrightPay Connect enables employees to log in to their self-service portal using their PC, Mac, tablet or smartphone. Within the employee’s self service portal, employees can access and retrieve payslips and other documentation.
Employees can also use the self-service portal to view and update various personal information, such as phone number and postal address.
