Complete the New Zealand Payroll import template

Complete the New Zealand Payroll import template in Futrli before importing payroll predictions into a forecast.

Written by Futrli Support

Use the New Zealand Payroll template to forecast employee costs, including income tax, KiwiSaver and commissions.

Before you start

Before you begin, create an import master sheet and copy the New Zealand Payroll template into it.

CAUTION: Don't:

  • Delete any rows or columns

  • Add any rows or columns

  • Overwrite existing formulas

  • Paste anything except Values

If you change the template structure, create a new template, copy it into your Import Master Sheet again, and start over.

  1. Open the forecast.

  2. Select New prediction, then Import templates.

  3. Select Open Master Sheet, then open the New Zealand Payroll tab.


Complete the New Zealand Payroll settings

  1. Expand New Zealand Payroll Settings.

  2. Complete all required fields.

  3. Map the highlighted accounts to the accounts in your chart of accounts.

  4. Review and update any default settings to match your business.

  5. Check that the Employee Income Tax and KiwiSaver thresholds are correct.
