How do I produce pension provider files in payroll workflow?

Cintra iQ has an Auto Enrolment (AE) facility, which takes you through the process of amending a pension scheme set up, defining which payment headings are pensionable and which headings are classed as Qualifying Earnings, running an assessment, and enrolling employees into the relevant Auto Enrolment scheme. Cintra iQ can also manage Opt ins and Opt outs.

You can produce the Auto Enrolment (AE) Enrolment and Contribution pension provider files in Payroll Workflow, against the desired payroll and send the files to the Pension Provider.

To produce pension provider files

Set a default pension scheme part.
Navigate to the Payroll Workflow window.
Go to Cintra iQ: Payroll Tools> Payroll Work Flow
Select Auto Enrolment in the desired payroll.
Click the Action Setup button. The Payroll Actions window appears.
Navigate to the Generate PP Files column in the desired payroll.
Double-click on the N/A status of the Generate PP Files which is applicable to your desired payroll. The Generate PP Files - Work Flow Options window appears.

Note:

This setting can also be controlled at the Group level within the Groups tab.
Select the Output Folder where you want the file to be saved.
Select the Email options to email the file, if necessary.
Select the desired Pension Provider and Pension Scheme.
Click the Apply button. The files are sent to the addressee as attachments. The N/A has changed to P for generating PP Files on the Payrolls tab.
Continue to process the payroll's workflow.
