What's new in EARNIE IQ v1.16.0?

We are continually striving to improve our products and services and you will occasionally be offered an update which includes new features as well as amendments.

This update includes the following improvements:

General changes

  • An e-mail address can now be added to the employee details screen.
  • In line with HMRC guidelines a new field has been added to the SAP and SPP (adoption) functions; Placement date.
  • In line with HMRC guidelines a new field has been added to SPP (adoption); Child's date of birth.
  • Student employment status - students do not normally pay tax and are therefore usually paid using the tax code 'NT'. Once the PAYE threshold is reached, tax must be deducted using the tax code 0T on a week 1/month 1 basis. The new Student employment status detects once this threshold has been reached and automatically changes an employee's tax code to 0T week 1/month 1.

HMRC messages

  • HMRC messages can automatically be processed within the software once matched to an employee. These include P6, P9, SL1, SL2, Annual Notifications and Reminders.
  • Before receiving any messages from the HMRC we recommend you run a Works Number Update (WNU). To do this go to Company | Online Services | Send Works Number Update.
  • For an overview of this process and further details then please read the release notes.
