Thank you for the reply. The contractors provide an invpoice for all the work performed, that is why I add them as suppliers.

So I am not sure if I can add them as emplyee as well.

Is a way to only make a payment for the super if the contractor provide an specific invlice for the super it self?

Regards;

Antonio
