Payslips
What a Kontala payslip shows, how to view one from a pay run, and how to give an employee a copy.
Last updated 20 July 2026.
Every pay run has one payslip per employee.
View a payslip
- Go to Money Out, choose Payroll, and open the run from History.
- Choose View next to the employee.
The payslip shows the person's Tax Code, NI Category, and how their NI is calculated, then three columns:
- Payments: the month's pay lines, such as Basic Pay, Overtime, Bonus, and any statutory payments. Only non-zero lines appear.
- Deductions: what came off, such as PAYE Tax, Employee NI, and Payroll Giving.
- Year to Date: cumulative Gross Pay, Tax Paid, Employee NI, Employer NI, and Net Pay for the tax year so far.
At the bottom sit the month's Total payments and the Net pay.
Give an employee a copy
Payroll is visible only to users with the Tax, Accounting & Users permission level or above, so employees do not see their own payslips in Kontala. There is no payslip PDF download yet either. To give someone a copy, print the payslip page from your browser.
Edit a payslip
While the run is still a draft, change a payslip with Edit Payslip - see Complete or edit a pay run. Once the run is completed, its payslips are read-only.
