Submitting a P45 to ROS

Once you have issued a P45 to an employee within Thesaurus Payroll Manager, part 1 of the employee's P45 can be submitted through the Revenue Online Services (ROS) website to inform Revenue that the employee has left your employment. This utility is only available if you have registered to use ROS.

To submit part 1 of the employee's P45 through ROS, you must first have prepared the ROS P45 file within Thesaurus Payroll Manager. For assistance with this, click here
