PRE-PAYROLL STAGE

(Before starting payroll for the first time)

These are the setup steps HR teams must complete in advance:

  1. Register New Employees (1 Day Before Start Date)
    ➤ Add new employees in the system at least one day prior to their start date to ensure attendance is tracked.

  2. Add Resignations Before Payroll Calculation
    ➤ Make sure resignation records are entered before payroll is run to avoid overpayment.

  3. Employee Movements (Promotion, Transfer, Adjustment)
    ➤ Use the Employee Movement module to record job promotions, departmental transfers, and salary adjustments.

  4. Update Salaries
    ➤ Review and update the salary field for each employee in their profile's Payroll Setting.

  5. Allowance & Deduction Update
    ➤ Ensure all relevant allowances and deductions are updated under the Allowance/Deduction section per employee or via policy.

  6. Upload Duty Roster (For Shift Workers)
    ➤ For companies using shift-based attendance, upload the duty roster at least one day before the start of the new month to ensure correct scheduling and attendance tracking.

  7. Check Summary Report
    ➤ Review reports for:

    • Attendance

    • Late/Leave

    • Early Checkout

    • Overtime


⚙️ DURING PAYROLL

(What to do while running payroll)

  1. Create Payroll
    ➤ Start the payroll generation process from the Payroll tab.

  2. Excel Adjustment – Export/Import
    ➤ Make mass adjustments via Excel files for efficient data handling.

  3. Attendance Regeneration
    ➤ If there were any changes to attendance (like backdated check-ins or leave approval), regenerate attendance before finalizing payroll.

  4. Policy Equation Changes
    ➤ Adjust day-rate/hour-rate or logic settings for allowances and deductions based on payroll rules.


📤 POST-PAYROLL STAGE

(Final steps after payroll is processed)

  1. Bank Transfer
    ➤ Use Better HR’s Bank Export Templates or direct integrations for automatic salary disbursement.

  2. Government Forms
    ➤ Download and process mandatory government forms (Tax, SSB, etc.).

  3. Send Payslips to Employees
    ➤ Automatically send payslips to employees to view them through their Better HR app.
