For each payroll calculation, you can use Workday to retrieve worker details from Revenue and the National Automatic Enrolment Retirement Savings Authority (NAERSA).
Details are only requested for workers who have both a PPS Number and an employment identifier. We don't request details from NAERSA for workers who aren't eligible for the MyFutureFund auto-enrolment pensions scheme.
  1. Access the
    Run IRL Incoming Notifications
    task.
  2. Complete the task:
    Option
    Description
    Tax Year
    Workday defaults to the current year.
    Because tax codes expire each year, you can select the next tax year when completing current year end and getting ready for the coming year.
    Worker
    Workday recommends that you only request details for a single worker in exceptional circumstances. Example: You're making a payment after leaving to a worker and you need their latest tax information.
    For active and non-active workers (such as workers on leave of absence), Workday requests tax information from Revenue and Auto-Enrolment Payroll Notification (AEPN) information from NAERSA. We display the data on the
    Matched RPNs
    and
    Matched AEPNs
    tabs of the
    View IRL Incoming Notifications
    report.
  3. Workday lists:
    • Any workers Revenue doesn't recognize, such as new hires, on the
      No RPN Responses
      tab.
    • AEPNs with discrepancies that need to be resolved on the
      Unmatched AEPNs
      tab.
    To register any unrecognized workers with Revenue, select the
    Awaiting Your Action
    tab, click
    Review
    , and click
    Approve
    .
    When Revenue updates their records, Workday automatically adds the approved new workers to the
    Matched Notifications
    tab and updates the affected workers' tax details.
  4. (Optional) On the
    View IRL Incoming Notifications
    report, select the
    State Pension Details
    tab to list any workers who are drawing state pension.
    Review the worker's pension and earnings and, if necessary, use the
    Add Worker IRL Tax Details
    task to amend their PRSI details.
Workday sends you My Tasks notifications to request approval to apply the incoming notification data from Revenue and NAERSA to the workers' tax details.
You can run the payroll for the reported period for all eligible workers.
