Payroll, worked out from the attendance already recorded
Payroll software for Indian businesses: salary structures, a monthly salary run, payslips and a bank transfer sheet — reading the attendance register your staff already fill.
An add-on to the Workforce set
What it does
Salary structures, the monthly run, payments and payslips
Set up how each person is paid once. Every month after that is a run you review and confirm, over attendance that is already marked.
Salary structures
- The parts of pay
- Earnings, allowances, bonus, deductions and employer contributions, each a named part of the structure.
- How each is worked out
- A fixed amount, or a percentage of another part, of gross, of taxable gross or of CTC.
- Marked as you build
- Which parts are taxable, and which depend on attendance. Only those shrink for days not paid.
- A live preview
- Gross and CTC work themselves out on screen while the structure is being put together.
- Held against each person
- A structure, a gross salary and the date it takes effect from. Assign in bulk; earlier ones stay as history.
The monthly salary run
- Month and branch
- Pick the month and the branch, then the people being paid.
- Flagged before it starts
- Anyone with no salary set up, or with unmarked days in the month’s attendance, is flagged and held back.
- Review
- Every person’s breakdown in one place. Adjust one person, or recalculate everyone.
- Draft, then confirm
- Save the run as a draft and come back to it. Confirm it once the figures are right.
Paying salaries
- What was paid
- Enter the amount actually paid to each person when the run is confirmed.
- Part-payments
- Pay part of a salary now. The rest is kept as a due against that person.
- Dues
- Pay them one at a time or several together, with the method, the bank account and a reference.
- Bank transfer sheet
- A NEFT sheet in Excel or CSV — name, designation, account number, bank, IFSC, branch and net pay. A general sheet, not one bank’s format.
- Recorded, not moved
- The money leaves your bank the way it does today. Payroll keeps the record that it did.
Payslips
- Your company on it
- Company details and logo, with the person’s designation, department, joining date and the pay period.
- The month’s attendance
- Working days, present, absent, holidays, paid and unpaid leave, week-offs and paid days, printed on the slip.
- Earnings and deductions
- Every part of pay listed, net pay in figures and in words, and the bank details it went to.
- Print, save or export
- A print-ready page to print or save as PDF, or a CSV.
- For the person it belongs to
- Every confirmed month appears in their own login, to download themselves.
The record
- Audit log
- Who changed what in payroll, for the people who run it.
- At a glance
- Total payroll this month, pending dues, people processed and confirmed runs.
- Payments
- A list of every salary payment made, with exports.
- Present or late
- Half day
- Leave
- Holiday or week-off
How a salary is worked out
Paid days, read from the attendance register
Payroll keeps no count of days of its own. It reads the register, and it will not run on a gap.
- Working days
- The month, less its holidays and week-offs — from the holiday calendar and week-off policy each person is on.
- No gaps
- While any working day is unmarked, the calculation does not go ahead. The day is marked in the register, and the run picks it up.
- Days that count
- Present or late counts a day. A half day counts half.
- Leave
- Paid or unpaid by the kind of leave it is. Approved leave is already written into the register.
- What is reduced
- Only the parts of pay marked as depending on attendance. Everything else is paid whole.
Next to it
What payroll takes from the other Workforce parts, and gives back
Nothing is typed into payroll that another part already holds. It reads two of them and hands on to two more.
Takes from
The register — marked days, approved leave, holidays and week-offs — sets each person’s paid days.
Takes from
Designation, department and bank details, onto the payslip and the bank transfer sheet.
Gives to
Each confirmed month’s payslip appears in the person’s own login.
Gives to
Approved claims are paid in a separate reimbursement payment run, with its own method, reference and transfer sheet. Claims are never added to the salary slip.
What it costs
The Payroll add-on, on top of the Workforce set
Both are priced a person a month, for the same people. Everyone on the rolls is a seat: the number you buy for is the number of employee records the office can hold.
- Workforce set
₹49.00₹44.10a person, a month
₹132.30 a person for the 3 months, paid at the start.
- Payroll add-on
₹30.00₹27.00a person, a month
₹81.00 a person for the 3 months, paid at the start.
The struck figure is the list rate; the shortest term is 3 months, and longer terms cost less a month. Prices are before GST. The Workforce set brings Employees, Attendance and Reimbursements; Payroll cannot be bought without it.
Before you buy
Payroll questions, answered
The things a business asks before moving its salaries over, answered directly — including the ones where the answer is no.
No. There are no statutory rules, tax slabs or filings built in, and it prepares no challans or returns. What you can do is set up deductions and employer contributions as your own parts of the salary structure — a fixed amount, or a percentage of another part, of gross or of CTC — and they are worked out every month from there. Your CA files as they do today.
No. Money is recorded, not moved. Payroll gives you a bank transfer sheet in Excel or CSV with each person’s account number, IFSC and net pay, you make the transfer from your bank as you do now, and the payment is recorded against the run with its method and reference.
No. Each confirmed month’s payslip appears in the person’s own login, where they download it themselves. The office can also print a payslip, save it as PDF from the print-ready page, or export it as a CSV.
Yes. Enter what you actually paid and the rest is kept as a due against that person. Dues can be paid later, one at a time or several together, with the method, bank account and reference recorded.
The run stops for that person until the missing days are marked. Payroll will not work out a salary while any working day is unmarked — it flags who has gaps, the days are marked in the attendance register, and the run picks them up.
No. Payroll is an add-on to the Workforce set: it reads the employee records and the attendance register the set brings. It is priced a person a month on top of the set, for the same people.
