Payslip codes that fit how you pay.
Set up payslip codes that match how your business actually pays people, then map them accurately to the matching SARS codes — so your submissions line up the first time.
No two businesses pay their people in exactly the same way, so a rigid set of payslip codes never quite fits. Bluubin lets you create payslip codes that match your real earnings, deductions and allowances — travel, commission, staff loans, whatever your business actually uses — then map each one to the matching SARS code.
Your exports come out correctly coded every time, so PAYE submissions and reconciliations line up with SARS the first time. There's no wrestling your pay structure into someone else's template and no last-minute recoding the night before a deadline.
This matters most at reconciliation. When every earning and deduction already carries the right SARS code, your EMP201 and EMP501 figures agree on the first pass, e@syFile accepts the import without kicking back errors, and your IRP5s reflect the correct source codes. You set the mapping up once and it holds, payroll run after payroll run.
Codes That Fit Your Business
Create payslip codes that reflect the real earnings, deductions and allowances you use, rather than forcing your payroll into a rigid template. If your business pays it, you can code it — accurately and consistently.
Mapped to SARS
Map each custom code to its matching SARS source code, so your exports and IRP5s come out correctly coded every time. The link between how you pay and how SARS expects it reported is made once and applied automatically.
Submissions That Line Up
With codes mapped correctly, your EMP201, EMP501 and e@syFile submissions reconcile the first time — no error messages to chase and no last-minute recoding under deadline pressure.
Consistent Every Run
Once your codes and mappings are set, they apply to every payroll run going forward. There's nothing to re-check each month, so your submissions stay accurate as your team and pay structure change.
Key Benefits
Frequently asked questions
Can I create my own payslip codes?
Yes — set up codes that fit exactly how your business pays people.
Do they map to SARS codes?
Yes. Each custom code maps to its matching SARS code for correct exports.
Does this help with submissions?
Yes — correctly coded exports reconcile with SARS the first time.
Why map payslip codes to SARS codes?
When every earning and deduction already carries the right SARS source code, your EMP201 and EMP501 figures agree on the first pass and e@syFile accepts the import without kicking back errors.
Can I code allowances like travel or commission?
Yes. Create payslip codes for the real earnings, deductions and allowances your business uses — travel, commission, staff loans and more — and map each to its matching SARS code.
Do I have to set the mapping up every month?
No. You set your codes and SARS mappings once and they apply to every payroll run going forward, so there's nothing to re-check each month.
Will my IRP5s show the correct source codes?
Yes. Because each custom code maps to its SARS source code, your IRP5s and exports come out correctly coded every run.
