We don’t sell payslips ourselves. Payroll Manager can print payslips in many different layouts, either onto plain paper, to PDF, or to pre-printed stationery if you prefer (We recommend Hague Direct / Form Factory if you wish to buy pre-printed forms). Payroll Manager can print HMRC approved P45s and P60s directly onto plain paper, or to PDF, so no special stationery is required.

Yes and no. The software is continuously updated so that is able to process the current tax year, plus all previous years going back to 1992/3.

Each licence is sold for a single user – however, it is quite normal and acceptable for this user to install the software on more than one computer (e.g. one at work, one at home) for their own use, using the same User Licence Code.
