-
Out-of-the-Box Setup
Enjoy a new streamlined way of working, right from the start.
All component types (earnings, deductions, fringe benefits, etc.) are linked to tax codes, so there’s no need to define how wage types must work and whether they should be taxed or not. Get pre-defined, automated components for bonus tax spreads and automated pay outs of bonuses.

-
Continuous Calculations
No more “last week of the month” rush.
With our HR and payroll software, there’s no need for an official pay run to calculate figures. There’s also no more downtime to backup the system before doing a payroll run to calculate tax and pay, pull reports, spot the errors and then repeat. Get real-time calculations that immediately show you the final payslip. Results are already available at the beginning of the month, so you can focus only on the changes, and input is spread throughout the month instead of last week.
