More Than Just a Paycheck

Payroll is the single most critical touchpoint between a company and its employees. Get it right, and nobody notices. Get it wrong, and trust evaporates instantly.

Despite this, nearly 30% of SMEs still rely on spreadsheets or disjointed systems to process payroll. The risks are substantial:

  1. Compliance Penalties: Incorrect tax deductions or late filings can lead to severe government fines.
  2. Time Drain: HR teams spend up to 40% of their time on administrative data entry.
  3. Morale Killer: A paycheck error forces an employee to focus on their personal financial stability rather than their work.

The Integrated Advantage

The FiyonOS ERP HRMS & Payroll Suite solves this by integrating Attendance, Leave, and Payroll into a single source of truth.

Automated Attendance to Payroll Flow

Manually calculating "Loyalty Bonus" or "Loss of Pay" (LOP) days based on biometric logs is prone to error. Our system links the Attendance Module directly to Payroll.

  • Employee clocks in via the portal.
  • Late marks and leaves are tracked automatically against policy.
  • At month-end, the system auto-calculates payable days.

No spreadsheets. No "he said, she said." Just accurate data.

Statutory Compliance on Autopilot

Tax laws change. PF rates change. Keeping up is a full-time job. Our platform is pre-configured with the latest statutory rules (PF, ESI, TDS, PT). When you process payroll, the system:

  • Calculates precise deductions.
  • Generates compliant payslips.
  • Prepares bank transfer files.
  • Creates reports for government filings.

Employee Self-Service (ESS)

Transparency builds trust. Instead of emailing HR for every question, employees access their Self-Service Portal to:

  • View and download payslips.
  • Check tax projections.
  • Declare investments for tax saving.
  • Apply for leave and see balances.

This reduces the administrative query load on HR by 70%, allowing them to focus on culture and talent acquisition.

Investing in Peace of Mind

Automating payroll is an investment in stability. It protects your company from legal risk and protects your relationship with your most valuable asset—your people.
