When using Nest API integration on BrightPay, it is possible to approve Nest payment confirmation from within the software.
Ensure that the contribution summary has been successfully received by Nest, then click on 'Approve Payment' within your Nest pension scheme on BrightPay.
Go to Pensions > Nest > Approve Payment:
The information will be automatically filled in via the API feedback received by Nest on the successful contribution submission.
Details will be shown as provided by Nest:
- Nest schedule - it will display the latest pay period that has been successfully submitted
- Nest schedule reference - a unique reference provided by Nest to match the scheme and pay period
- Total payable amount - the total of employee and employer contributions for the period
Once you have verified that all information is correct, click 'Send to Nest'.
Confirmation that the payment approval was successful will appear on screen.
Note: This is only available if the contribution summary has been successfully sent via API on BrightPay. For csv file uploads, the payments must be approved directly on the Nest Employer Portal.
To approve payments directly on Nest;
- Log in to your NEST account
- Go to "Manage Contributions"
- Choose "Edit/Pay" on the correct schedule and approve the payment directly on NEST
If you don’t see the option to approve a payment in BrightPay even if the contribution summary was via API, it is likely due to a previous rejection by NEST for that period. In this instance, you can approve it directly on the NEST website.
