What finance worries about at month-end
- Payroll totals arrive as a spreadsheet with no way to trace a number.
- Statutory rates are applied by formulas nobody has checked this year.
- The person who prepares payroll is also the one who releases it.
A payroll run you can trace and approve
Each run starts from approved attendance and the salary structure, applies your statutory policy, and lays out every line for review. Approval is a separate step for a separate person, recorded in the audit trail.
Statutory lines
PF, ESI, Professional Tax and New Regime TDS from rates you configure.
Separation of duties
Prepare and approve are separate permissions you assign by role.
Exports
Bank advice, PF ECR and ESI return files from the approved run.
What changes
- Any figure in the run can be explained.
- Nobody pays out a run they prepared alone.
- Filing files come from the same approved run.
What you can check yourself
- Deductions use rates you can see in settings, not hidden constants.
- The audit trail records each change to a run.
- Hosting and security details are published on the Security page.
Before you get started
Who approves payroll?
Preparing and approving a run are separate steps, and every change is recorded in the audit trail, so a second person can check the run before anyone is paid.
Which statutory deductions are supported?
PF (with wage ceiling), ESI (with eligibility threshold), state Professional Tax slabs and New Tax Regime TDS. Each is configured in your payroll policy and shown line by line when you review the run.
Can I file PF and ESI from PeopleOS?
PeopleOS produces bank advice, PF ECR and ESI return files from approved payroll runs. Acceptance of those files by banks and government portals is still being verified, so check each file before you upload it.
