As an organisation, when you move from your previous payroll platform over to Employment Hero Payroll, you would have other income and/or benefits accrued by your employees that would need to be transferred. This would include your employees' benefits in kind, gains/profits from employee share plans, income from overseas employment/pension funds, and income tax borne by the employer.
The Importing Other Income and/or Benefits feature allows you to export a CSV template containing the other income and/or benefits data stored within your payroll platform. Once you have downloaded this template, you can then edit this information, and then re-upload the CSV file onto your platform.
