ePayroll is designed for Australian Payroll processes and legislation. International companies with Australian employees can use ePayroll to pay their Australian employees only; it doesn't actually matter where your company's Head Office is located.

Please note: ePayroll cannot be used for staff employed outside of Australia.

No, you would need to send the funds to an Australian account or set the employee to ‘cheque’ as the method of payment and make the overseas payment manually.

Yes, some of our clients prefer a partitioned approach (e.g. by division or state) so that each division or department can have a separate person running the payroll. Talk to one of our friendly ePayroll Support Consultants about how to customize an ePayroll package to suit your business. Click here to Contact Us

Each ePayroll user can be allocated different ‘web roles’ or levels of access and authority (e.g. managers can be given access to only view their respective cost centres details). Directors and managers can be given access to the payroll and reports if required. At the end of running a payroll, ePayroll has an automatic report distribution facility where ePayroll can be instructed to send certain reports to certain email addresses (e.g. a summary report to the financial controller and the HR report to the HR manager). You can manage these authority levels all online within ePayroll.

No, you do not need to install any software. The advantage of ePayroll's Software as a Service (SaaS) model is that the program is completely Online. Once your ePayroll account is set up, you will receive unique login details so that you can access ePayroll securely from any computer with internet access - from anywhere in the world! Plus, because ePayroll is online, any product upgrades or legislation changes will automatically be provided the next time you log into ePayroll, saving you both time and money.

No, ePayroll is used by companies with as few as one Australian employee, right up to companies with hundreds of staff. It is important that the ePayroll solution is tailored to your requirements, so contact us to see how ePayroll can help you more efficiently manage your employees. Click here to Contact Us

Due to the fact that employees can now choose their own Super fund, it can be difficult to know if you have entered their in details correctly.

ePayroll has a complete list of Australian Superannuation funds (this list is continually updated as new funds emerge) and a Superannuation search function which can assist you to ensure you are selecting the correct Super fund for that employee.

For example: AMP may have five different funds, but your employee doesn't know which they belong. By using the limited details provided by that employee you can have peace of mind that you have allocated the correct fund to that employee.

ePayroll can be implemented online in few hours via the Online Wizard client set-up. If you require our assistance in entering employee details this timeframe may be extended. Click here to contact us

Each company is different. Generally, the more staff you have the longer it will take and the more payrolls you process the easier it becomes. However, once set-up, you are able to input default hours and ePayroll will automatically generate a standard input sheet for each employee based these hours. All you need to do is enter any variations, it’s quite simple and saves you a lot of time. Some of our customers have been able to reduce their payroll processing time to just minutes - check out our Testimonials page to see what some of our existing clients have to say about ePayroll.

There is no limit to how many bank accounts each employee can choose to have their pay deposited into. You can choose to provide employees with access to the online Employee Self Service (ESS) portal where the employee has responsibility for viewing, updating and verifying their banking details. Alternatively, you can choose to have these changes handled by your payroll authority. Employees can also choose what fixed amounts or percentages of their total pay will be deposited into each of their bank accounts.

Automated maintenance, such as reindexing and database performance optimization, occurs on a weekly basis. Minor enhancements are released fortnightly, with additional functionality released every 90 days. You will be notified regarding release via the ePayroll blog, occur outside business hours and rarely impact live users.

No they don't. It's easy to select what level of access you would like each employee to have, and you can change it at any time. This is perfect if you've got a combination of employees where you can allocate different web roles.

You have two options for paying your staff:

• You can upload the ABA bank file generated by ePayroll into your internet banking software and pay your employees into as many bank accounts as required, in one simple step - this is the most commonly used method.
• Or, you can manually make separate cheque, EFT or cash payments to each employee using the supplied payment details report.

Of course we can! That's just another benefit of the Software as a Service (SaaS) model. With the wonders of internet technology, it is easy to communicate with ePayroll, no matter where you are located. We have many international companies using ePayroll to pay their employees in Australia.

Training can also be conducted online...More information

All you need is a computer with internet access, and a web browser. While ePayroll does work on dial-up internet connection, we recommend that for a faster and more convenient result, you use a broadband connection.

If you are the person who normally runs the payroll, but you won't be in the office - don't fear!

ePayroll's accessible Software as a Service model provides you with two options:

• You can set up another employee or stakeholder as an authority. That person will then be able to login to ePayroll from their own computer and run the payroll in your absence. By having their own login, there will also be a record of what changes were made while you were out of the office
• Or, you can simply login to ePayroll yourself from any computer with internet access, anywhere in the world, at any time of the day or night, allowing you to retain complete control of the payroll process

It's entirely up to you!

ePayroll is designed to work with various rostering and time and attendance providers.
