Apologies to not having been online for a while, but have recently suffered with health issues.
My partner is away for three weeks which means I have been left with the payroll, which so far has gone to plan.
However, this morning I received an email from a Contractor attaching a subcontractor's invoice for payment through CIS.
All went well ( quite pleased with myself at this point as I try not to get involved with PAYE or CIS.)
I have now received 3 other invoices from the same Contractor requesting further payments to the Subcontractor, with invoices provided.
We use Payroll Manager and the subcontractor is set up for weekly payments.
Am I right in thinking that if there are multiple payments due to the same subcontractor in the weekly period, then I manually have to add the invoices together or can Payroll manager deal with this as single payments in the same week. I have checked the user guide but no success and the Help Line is now closed.
Hi Jay
It was noticed, you have been missed! Hope you ae feeling much better now!
I dumped all my CIS clients a LONG time ago so Im going from memory (which is not such a good idea these days!). I seem to recall I used to lump the invoices together manually and deal with as a single payment.
That said, I know John (Leger) still uses Moneysoft and has some CIS clients so he might be better placed to advise these days, am sure he will be along soon.

Yes, I think you will need to manually add the invoice amounts together. There is a notes section in the payment screen where you can add invoice numbers , and an option to include any notes on the payslip, so that its clear which invoices were processed.
Hi Jay
Oh heck, that doest sound good. Hope the surgery is now finally helping with the eye problem - scary stuff!! Don't blame you for wanting to ditch the more pressurised deadlines, which is only set to get worse under IT MTD, for the dis-organised clients at any rate!

Hi Jay
Just a thought - have you considered selling a block of fees? No need to answer on such an open forum obviously but thought i would mention it as there are a lot of buyers out there. Might be worth contacting a couple of specialist brokers - Draper Hinks and Vivian Sram come highly recommend on the old networks. Feel free to PM if you want further info.

Thank you for the suggestion regarding our clients.
Our daughter in law is a qualified accountant and has an Accountancy practice locally. Having been employed by us some years ago she has worked with the majority of clients we are disengaging so they are happy with a "transfer" to her.
This was always a long term plan for us but just coming about a bit quicker than anticipated.
The eye has settled well and I have already formally reduced my working day.
