Running payroll

Payroll turns the attendance and salary data already in Vivotics into calculated pay runs with payslips.

One-time setup

1. Enable the Payroll module.
2. Define salary components: basic, allowances, deductions and their calculation rules.
3. Set each employee's salary structure on their profile.

Each pay cycle

1. Go to HR > Payroll and generate the run for the period.
2. Vivotics computes gross to net per employee, using attendance and unpaid leave from the HR module: no exports, no re-typing.
3. Review the run (compare with last period; check joiners and leavers), adjust any line, then mark it paid.
4. Every employee gets a payslip showing gross pay, each deduction and net pay, visible from their own account.

Tips

• Lock the attendance period before generating payroll so numbers cannot shift under you.
• Keep statutory deduction rules in salary components rather than manual adjustments, so every run is consistent.
