Flexibility to address unique requirements

Traditional payroll applications provide hard-coded, out-of-the-box packages that are often unable to accommodate specific business needs. Workday’s flexible and intuitive configuration supports your organisation’s advanced requirements.

Robust calculation engine: Run payroll calculations as often as you want with Workday’s powerful calculation engine, built to handle the most complex payroll requirements. Payroll processing time is drastically reduced from hours to minutes.

Highly configurable: Configure accumulations, balance periods, and balances according to your current calculation and reporting needs. Group employees into logical pay groups according to organisational needs.

Complete control to manage payroll Workday Payroll provides complete control over your payroll processes, data, and costs. Eliminate the pain points found in traditional systems with intuitive payroll set-up and management tools.

Control over process: Control how gross-to-net is calculated for different types of payroll runs. Define criteria for specific earnings and deductions.

Control over data: Quickly access pay results for any employee or period. Run common predefined reports, such as pay balance summary and pay calculation results.
