3 Page 3 of Summary The purpose of this guide is to step you through the process required to set up a new case on ease using the onboarding tool. The onboarding tool is designed to be a faster way of setting up a new employer on the system. It is aimed at the simpler employers with only one payroll and one pension scheme. For more complex cases or where you wish to use functionality not provided for within the onboarding tool, the menu driven set up is still available and the existing user guide is still applicable for these cases. There is a separate guide that will step through the process of loading opt-in, opt-out and payroll files.

4 Page 4 of Adding a new case To begin the creation of a new employer you need to add a new case. When you create a new case you will also need to set up Case Securities and create User Roles. Click on the Administration tab, user setup, Add/amend cases Clicking on Add/amend cases opens the screen below. Click on Add Clicking on Add opens the screen below Type in the client s name and select the Database Server from the drop down list Click Update Once the case is setup you will need to add a new role and then add this role to case securities.

Once you have the role saved, you need to go back to the case and add this role into the case securities tab. 2.2 Case Securities Case securities need to be set up to ensure that the case is accessible only to users with ease Admin, ease client or case specific role you have created. Best Practice is that you will always add a case specific role to the new case at this stage.

17 Page 17 of Setting up Pension Scheme provider export reports There is a standard payroll export report that will be automatically generated from the system once the payroll file has been run.

19 Page 19 of Using editable grid When a new employer is set up the system will automatically default the payroll upload to using the ITM worker details file as your payroll file template. However, there is an alternative in the form of an editable grid that can be used instead. This has to be switched on and the following steps show you how. (This can be done before the first payroll period, or once the first payroll file has been loaded) Set up your employer as per the instructions above. Once you have done this you need to go to Employer set up tab Payroll set Add/Amend payroll details Click on+ next to your payroll name and select the Add/amend system links tab Click Edit next to Check the box and click update Close the window and refresh the screen. Now when you open the Payroll Load Widget and click Load Payroll File instead of being given a browse option you will be given an editable grid, which can then be populated with member data. IF you have previously loaded a file but have then changed the setting the data from the previous payroll period will show in the grid as below, but will be editable. Once changes have been made click submit data and the details will be loaded.
