I've just printed a P45 onto the pre-printed HMRC P45 forms. The printed text on the first 2 pages is not printing correctly into the boxes and I can't find where to change it!
No probs if nobody knows, just that there was a 25 minute wait for Sage!
Check that you're using the correct HMRC P45 stationery. There are several designs. The most common one for PC software (unless you're filing online) is the 4 part laser portrait.
Sage may have a mode which allows you to file the Part 1 of the P45 online, in which case it may also allow you to print a P45(Online), a P45 document for the employee that doesn't require stationery. (sorry I can't be more specific about how Sage does that, but it feels like a feature that I'd expect it to have)
