How and whether you can add your bank account details in your Sage HR profile depends on a few different factors.

  • Whether you use Sage HR Online Services (UK only) to access your payslips online.

  • Whether a bank accounts details section has been enabled or created by an admin user.

So you can follow the correct steps, just answer the question below.


Do you use Sage HR Online Services to access your payslips online?

Yes I do

In that case, as long as an admin user hasn't disabled this in their settings, you can add or update your bank account details in your employee profile.

No I don't

In that case, you only have access to add your bank account details if an admin user has created a custom field for these details. These fields will either be in the Employee or Personal tab in your profile.

If you need to update your bank account details with your employer, what you need to do depends on whether this is something available to amend yourself in Sage HR.

I don't have a bank details field

If you don't have a field anywhere in Sage HR to add or update your bank account details, this means your employer doesn't have one created, or they haven't made it available to you.

Either way, please get in contact with your employer directly to inform them of your updated bank account details so they can update their records.

I have a bank details field that I can edit

If you need to update your bank details, and you have you field that you have access to amend yourself, simply make the required changes, then remember to click Save.

Depending on how your employer has set up Sage HR, they may automatically get notified about this change. To make sure, we recommend you contact your employer directly, just to make sure these details have been updated.

I have a bank details field, but I can't edit it

If you can't edit your custom bank details field, please contact your manager, HR admin, or anyone who has access to amend this on your behalf.
