How does Payday filing work?
Payday filing is the system used by New Zealand employers to report employee payment information to Inland Revenue (IR). Instead of filing a single monthly schedule, you provide details every time you pay your staff.
MYOB streamlines Payday filing by automating the calculation and submission of required data directly from your payroll workflow to Inland Revenue (IR).
How do I migrate from another payroll software to MYOB?
There are two ways to move your data to MYOB.
