If you have more than one payroll with the same tax registration number, you should merge these payrolls into a consolidation company. You can then generate a single payroll report or Revenue Online Service (ROS) submission file that covers all the consolidated payrolls.

Although you can run reports in the consolidated company, you can’t process your payroll or edit employee details.

Set up a consolidation company

1. Log into Sage Micropay as the system administrator.
2. On the menu bar, click Company then click Consolidation Setup.
3. Complete the following information:

Consolidation Company Enter a name for the consolidation company, for example, CONSOL.
Password Enter an optional password.
Cons. Select the check boxes for the payrolls you want to merge.
Default Payroll Select a payroll that holds your company’s contact details. When you generate returns for Revenue, your company’s address and contact details must be included.

4. Click Create.
5. When asked if you want to create a new consolidation company, click Yes.
