Payroll Assistant

Clocked hours in. Clean numbers out.

Every shift is already tracked in the Staff App. Payroll Assistant turns that into accurate, ready-to-run hours for whoever handles your PAYE — no chasing timesheets, no manual re-typing.

Staff clock in/out

Real hours, captured at the venue as they happen.

Manager approves

Rota-vs-actual is checked before anything's signed off.

Clean export

Approved hours, tidied per person, ready to send on.

Your accountant runs payroll

They handle PAYE and RTI — Porchlight hands them accurate hours, not a stack of paper.

Built to sit alongside your accountant

Porchlight isn't trying to replace your payroll provider.

It removes the messiest part of getting there — reliable, approved hours, per person, without anyone re-keying a paper timesheet. Your accountant still runs PAYE and RTI exactly as they do now, just off cleaner data.

Worth being clear: Payroll Assistant tracks and tidies hours — it doesn't file PAYE or RTI itself. That stays with your accountant or payroll provider, using the numbers Porchlight hands them.
