HR, Payroll & Time Attendance

HR, Payroll & Biometrics

If time sheets are typed in from the clock and leave lives in a spreadsheet, month-end depends on someone re-typing. We set up one system for the whole cycle, from attendance and leave to the payslip and the bank file, with PAYE on the current BURS tables. Where you use biometric clock-in devices, their data feeds attendance too.

One System for Your People

What does it cover?

One system for everything between hiring someone and paying them: the employee file, leave, attendance, payroll, statutory deductions and the reports your accounts team needs.

Where you use biometric devices, clock-ins flow straight into attendance, so nobody re-types time records. The payroll run picks up attendance, leave and deductions, and produces a payroll journal for your accounts.

Every employee linked to a branch and department
Biometric clock-ins, where devices are used, feed attendance, leave and payroll
PAYE on the current BURS tax tables, updated each year
Payslips and leave on the employee's own phone
Reports by branch and for the business as a whole

Six Areas, One System

From the Employee File to the Bank File

Each area works on the same employee records and branches.

Module 01

Employee Records

The full employee file: contracts, qualifications, dependants and documents, with alerts before a document expires. Every employee is linked to their branch and department.

Module 02

Leave & Attendance

Leave policies, entitlements and accruals. Staff apply online and managers approve. Holiday lists and attendance are kept in the same place.

Module 03

Biometric Time Attendance (Optional)

Clock-ins from biometric devices at your sites flow into attendance against each employee's shift, and on into leave and payroll. Late arrivals and early exits show up without anyone re-typing a time sheet. We confirm your devices and sites before we scope the integration.

Module 04

Payroll

Salary structures and components, the monthly payroll run, payslips, the bank payment file and a payroll journal for your accounts.

Module 05

Botswana Statutory & Deductions

PAYE calculated on the current BURS tax tables, terminal benefits and severance. Pension, medical aid, and staff loans and advances with repayment schedules. Tax-table changes are applied each year under support.

Module 06

Self-Service & Reports

Staff see their payslips, apply for leave and update their details on a computer or phone. Headcount, payroll cost, leave liability and statutory reports, by branch or for the whole business.

How It Works in Practice

From Clock-In to Payslip

One month's pay, followed through the system.

Step 1

Staff clock in

If you use biometric devices, each clock-in and clock-out is recorded at the branch.

Step 2

Attendance is marked

Clock-ins become attendance against the employee's shift, alongside approved leave.

Step 3

Payroll runs

The monthly run picks up attendance, leave and deductions, and calculates PAYE on the current tables.

Step 4

Paid and posted

Payslips go to self-service, the bank file goes to the bank, and a payroll journal is prepared for your accounts.

Going Live Safely

Nobody Is Paid Until the Figures Match

A new payroll system should prove itself before anyone depends on it. This is how we switch over.

If you have an existing payroll, your two most recently completed payrolls are re-run in the new system
Each one is reconciled to your figures, line by line
One live month runs in parallel with your current process
The first live payroll runs with our team alongside yours

Access and Audit

The Right People See the Right Figures

Payroll data is sensitive. Access follows each person's role.

Staff see their own payslips and leave through self-service
Leave requests go to the approver set for each employee
Reports are visible only to the people entitled to see them
Changes are recorded in an audit trail
