Access Pay and Bill Evo process mapping guide

This document will allow you to review which payroll processes are available in Pay and Bill Evo and help you strategise which functionality to revert to Pay and Bill core to action.

Written by Terence Cassidy

What is included in this document?

We have provided a breakdown of the Pay and Bill core features already available in Pay and Bill Evo, including features on the roadmap, where you will have to use Pay and Bill core to access the functionality. The process mapping guidance will help you best prepare when assessing your payroll processing when using both systems. We have also given you the report pack currently available in Pay and Bill Evo.

We include a list of the main processes involved in a standard payroll run. The payroll processes are listed in a commonly adopted processing order, and they provide you with a navigation hint and any further details that we think would be helpful. A visual indicator icon is displayed at the side of each process row, indicating whether the process is currently available within Pay and Bill Evo, advising whether we have the feature on our current roadmap.

Additionally noted are our Roadmap Items, which are listed in terms of our shorter, mid-term, and longer-term roadmaps. Hopefully, this will address concerns about losing functionality within Pay and Bill Evo. You drive our roadmap and priorities, so feedback is essential to us. Please get in touch with us at any time to discuss this.
