I am using BrightPay and am facing trouble with adding myself to the payroll.
I have been a director of my company since January 2013, but will be paying myself a salary for the first time in May 2017.
I have not been on the payroll so far as I was not paid any amount by the company. Only the two employees hired by my company have been on the payroll so far.
When I try to add myself to the payroll, I keep getting the message on the FPS that payroll ID has been changed (previously blank or unknown). I did not have a payroll ID before this, so I am unsure how to go about this problem?
Also, do I need to complete a starter's checklist with a declaration to be on the payroll now, even though I have been a director since 2013?
Thank you for your help.
