Payroll Reporting

Payroll Analysis

Go to Payroll > Reporting > Payroll Analysis. Pivot with:

• Dimensions: Employee, Department, Contract, Salary Rule Category, Payslip Period.
• Measures: Gross Amount, Net Amount, Total Deductions, Employer Contributions.
• Filters: Date Range, Department, Employee.

Key Insights

• Total payroll cost per department.
• Monthly salary trends.
• Employer contribution breakdown by type.
• Tax deductions summary.

Payroll-to-Accounting Reconciliation

Each confirmed payslip batch posts a journal entry (or one entry per payslip, depending on configuration) debiting salary expense accounts and crediting the amounts owed to employees/tax authorities/benefit providers. After every run, reconcile the batch's total Net + Deductions + Employer Contributions against the posted journal entry total in Accounting — a mismatch usually means a salary rule's account mapping is wrong.

Statutory & Compliance Reports

Beyond the pivot analysis, export payslip data (gross, deductions, employer contributions by employee) in the format your tax/social-security authority requires — most jurisdictions need a periodic filing built from exactly this data, so keep salary rule codes consistent so the export mapping doesn't need to be redone each period.

Best Practices

• Run a test payroll for one employee before batch processing.
• Reconcile total payslip amounts with accounting entries every period, not just at year-end.
• Keep salary rule sequences logical – compute basic before allowances, allowances before statutory deductions.
• Back up salary rules before making changes, and test changes on a duplicated employee/contract first.
• Lock (mark Done) a payslip only after payment has actually been disbursed, not before.
