Pay As You Earn (PAYE) withholding is a process of withholding income tax from an employee's or contractor's salary or wages. The payer of the income, therefore, rather than the recipient of the income, pays the tax directly to the IRD for the employee or contractor.

The PAYE Withholding Reporting feature allows you to create a report on the PAYE withholding amounts made by your organisation within a certain date range. Then you the ability to narrow the data down further down by employing entity or earnings location. You can also use this feature to download an excel file of this data or save the information in a printable PDF format.

Author recommended

So you have now run a PAYE Withholding report and you are now wondering what next can I do. There are two recommendations I would make on this front and they are:

  • Payroll Platform: Pay Run Comparison Reporting This feature allows you to create a report comparing your organisation's finalised pay runs over a chosen period.
  • Payroll Platform: Pay Run Audit Reporting This feature allows you to create a report on a pay run conducted within your organisation and see details such as the deduction details, the PAYE adjustments and the leave accrued.
