Accessing payslips or payroll data from a previous accountant or bureau

If you need access to payslips or payroll data from a tax year that was processed by a previous accountant, bureau, or payroll provider, you will need to contact them directly. BrightPay cannot access payroll data held in another organisation's account — each bureau or accountant's BrightPay account is entirely separate and BrightPay Support have no ability to retrieve or transfer data between accounts on your behalf. Your previous provider should be able to supply copies of payslips, reports, or an exported employer file depending on what you require.
