Calculating the payroll may seem as straightforward as adding up a number of hours worked with the employee’s rate. However, taking into account factors such as vacation leaves, overtime, and benefits makes it complicated. Moreover, the federal taxes with its own requirements have to be applied in every payroll. While you still have to input specific variables, a payroll software automates and optimizes the entire process that saves a significant amount of time compared to manually doing all the calculations. Repeating payroll tasks are also saved in the system so you won’t have to create a new format again and again manually.

Meanwhile, employees can also log in and track their hours, leave allowances, payroll deductions, fringe balances, and other benefits in their payroll profile. This boosts their morale and reduces the work of payroll administrators. Since it is based on physiological features such as fingerprints, you don't have to worry about extra costs of RFID/Chip cards, which turn out to be expensive, as employees tend to lose such cards or in case they abscond, both of which are quite common these days.
