Payroll processing pulls timesheet data, checks for errors, calculates hours, and applies pay changes before a manager signs off on disbursement. Doing this by hand every pay period creates repeated manual entry, close deadlines, and risk of costly mistakes.
An automated version pulls hours, flags exceptions, runs the calculation, and routes it for approval before handling deposits, filings, and reconciliation. The result is a faster, more consistent pay cycle with fewer manual touchpoints.
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
Marks the pay period ready once all employee timesheets are submitted.
Pulls hours, flags missing punches or unusual overtime, and totals regular and overtime hours.
Updates employee changes and enters confirmed hours, then runs the draft payroll calculation.
Delivers the payroll summary to the finance manager with a one-click approve or flag option.
If the manager flags an issue, the payroll admin fixes the entry directly before it moves forward.
Once approved, processes direct deposits and tax filings, posts the journal entry, and reconciles the payroll bank account.
Automatically sends each employee their individual pay stub for the period.
