Walk me through paying a CIS subbie.

Arrr I understand. Once you switch the CIS functionality on it creates a few new account codes [labour 20%, labour 30% etc]. It's these codes you use for the subbies as they have rules attached to them as to the relevant CIS bookkeeping entries that need making.

Now, I could be wrong here but I think you're going to get a monthly payment certificate for the subbie in line with the return dates as opposed to something each time you physically pay them.

ah thanks yes i see it.

In the absence of any instructions from clearbooks which is pretty bad I assumed if you chose 'Labour' as the code the sotware would automatically apply the correct CIS rate that it had got when the subby was matched.

Next question clearbooks have hidden really well the report that I need to print out to give to the subby to show his pay that week with deductions. Where can i find it ?

thanks for you help.

That's created by heading to Purchases > Purchase Orders > Create PO

You would then likely email that to the subbie and click the green tick to mark it as complete:

Then once the work is complete and the subbie invoices you, you can click the create bill button:

Which will then take you through to the usual bill creation page and once saved create the normal bookkeeping entries [inc CIS]. Once said bill is paid [in part or full] it will appear within the CIS return ready for submission to HMRC.

Hi Ryan

Seems to work fine for me...
