Who is owed what, without the Thursday spreadsheet
Most firms keep subbie days on paper, in a WhatsApp thread, or in a spreadsheet nobody trusts by Thursday. Put the days down, approve them, and I will tell you exactly who is owed what. Pay them and mark it paid, and it clears off the balance.
No card needed. Unlimited for 14 days. Cancel any time.
Put the week down in one pass
Fill in the week gives you all seven days as a list: full day, half day or off.
Approval fixes the figure
Approving locks the amount at the rate on file that day, so a rate rise next month never rewrites last month.
Who is owed, largest first
Everyone owed, with how far back the oldest entry goes. They stay listed after they stop working for you.
Built for how a day-rate subbie actually works
There is no clocking in, no GPS and no rotas, and that is a decision rather than a gap. It is not how a day-rate subbie works. And for someone genuinely self-employed, being rostered and tracked is exactly the sort of thing that makes HMRC look twice at whether they are self-employed at all.
- Days and half days, by the day or by the hour
- No clocking in, no GPS following anyone around, no rotas
- Subbies can log their own days if you let them, but never approve them
CIS recorded, not filed
On a subcontractor you can record the CIS deduction, 20%, 30% or gross, so the figures you are working from are the right ones. Worth being plain about what that is not: I do not verify anybody with HMRC and I do not file your CIS300. That stays with your accountant or your accounts software.
- Record 20%, 30% or gross against each subcontractor
- No HMRC verification and no CIS300 filing, on purpose
- Export the week as a CSV for the bookkeeper
Paying, without half-paying
Mark paid against a person settles everything outstanding and records it against those exact days. If someone else in the office settled part of it while you had the page open, I refuse the whole run rather than pay part of it: three days settled out of four looks identical to four, and you would only find out when the subbie says he is short.
- Settles what is outstanding and records it against the days
- Refuses a partial run rather than half-paying someone
- Unapproved hours are not a debt, so they never inflate what you owe
The lad you forget to pay is the one who stopped working for you
He still shows up here while he is owed.
