Our Powerful Cloud Payroll Software Features

wired-outline-1386-page-view-headline.gif

When creating payroll software, it's essential to thoroughly address the needs of regulators such as the Australian Taxation Office and Fair Work. Cutting corners isn't an option, as it compromises the software's effectiveness and usefulness. Whether for small or large businesses, the fundamental payroll requirements remain the same. By meeting these standards, we can confidently ensure a reliable and compliant solution that benefits businesses of all sizes and operates seamlessly within the regulatory framework.​

 

When talking about payroll, using the term "simplifying" is a commonly used marketing tactic. What software can really do is streamline payroll processes to meet the requirements. It's important to remember that payroll is complex and always changing due to new legislation. True simplification can only happen at a governmental level through decisions that reduce some of the complexity. But don't worry; we can still make procedures more efficient, improve productivity, and assist in mitigating potential errors.

​

The user experience distinguishes various payroll solutions. Although the core functionality should be similar between products, it often isn't.​  Our primary payroll software features and functionality are detailed below, but many more are available. Keep checking back for details about our exciting new additions.

  • Fully configurable and and can meet a myriad of requirements.
    Global options can be easily customised to meet the needs of the Organisation.
  • Supports an ABN (Australian Business Number) or a WPN (Withholding Payer Number).
    You can use e-PayDay Go with either an ABN or WPN. A Withholding Payer Number (WPN) is allocated to individuals and some non-individuals who have withholding obligations under Pay as You Go (PAYG) but do not have an Australian Business Number (ABN). Individuals who hire household help like nannies, carers, cleaners, gardeners or housekeepers may also need WPNs. The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) allows direct staff employment if you self-manage your NDIS funding. The ATO issues a WPN to certain partners in partnerships and non-individual entities who are not eligible for an ABN. This is only offered to entities that have PAYG withholding obligations and are required to pay super for eligible employees.
