Payroll

Prepare, approve and pay the month's salary

Each month's salary is prepared, approved, posted to your books and paid as its own step, by the people you choose.

How it works

A month's salary, step by step

Each step needs its own right, so money is always checked by a second person before it moves.

  1. Prepare

    Open the month's salary sheet, with each person's current pay.

  2. Approve

    Someone other than the preparer checks and approves it.

  3. Post

    The approved sheet becomes entries in your books.

  4. Pay

    Pay from your bank or cash account, and see what has been paid.

What it changes for you

  • Salary in your books

    Salary expense and what you owe staff are always up to date.

  • Checked before it's paid

    Nobody approves a sheet they prepared.

  • Quick when it's routine

    Run the whole month in one click when nothing has changed.

What you can do

  • Monthly salary sheet

    Bring in each person's current pay, and see the month's total before anyone approves it.

  • Separate approval

    Nobody approves a sheet they prepared, so a second person always checks the money.

  • Posted to your books

    An approved sheet becomes accounting entries, so salary expense is never typed twice.

  • Pay from your account

    Pay the month from a bank or cash account, and see what has been paid.

  • Run the month in one click

    Prepare, submit, approve, post and pay one after another, stopping wherever your rights end.

  • Payslips

    Each person's pay for the month, from the approved sheet.

Payroll is part of People & Work, on every Business plan. KhataIN does not work out TDS, SSF, overtime or leave deductions: you enter those amounts on the sheet, each with a reason everyone checking can see.

Questions people ask

Does it calculate TDS and SSF?

Not today. You enter TDS, SSF and other deductions on the sheet, with a reason, and KhataIN carries them into your books.

Can one person prepare and approve the salary?

No. Each step needs its own right, and the person who prepared a sheet cannot approve it.
