Gross salary goes in, a signed payslip comes out

Add your staff, open the period; the engine calculates social security, tax and stamp duty item by item. You just approve — the payslip goes to the employee's portal to be signed. Leave, advance, assets, expenses: all in the same file.

UNITS OF THE MODULE

Five units, one file: from hiring to the archive

The personnel module is more than a salary sheet — a full HR office from employee files to payroll, from requests to assets. Each of the five units closes one job end to end.

Employee File

Personnel details, documents, contract — each employee's file on a single card.

Open the File

Payroll & Salary

Single or batch: social security, tax, stamp duty — the engine calculates, you approve.

See the Engine

Leave · Advance · Expense

Requests come from staff, approval from you; advances are auto-deducted on payroll.

See the Flow

Assets & Tasks

Laptop, phone, vehicle — who received what, on record with its handover form.

See Assets

Employee Portal

Staff view and sign their payslip; leave and advance requests start from the portal.

01 · PAYROLL ENGINE

Three work modes, one discipline: the engine calculates, you decide

Run it single or run it in batch: same engine, same rates, same result. You enter the salary; the deductions line up item by item, to the kuruş.

LEGAL CALCULATION ITEMS

The engine's ledger

The same legal discipline runs under every payslip — from Law 5510 to Income Tax Art. 103, from stamp duty to the minimum wage exemption. All automatic, all current.

Explore Payroll
When the year changes, you're not left behind. If parameters go stale in the new year, the system warns the owner by itself — outdated rates never touch a payslip silently.
Single Payroll EngineSingle and batch runs go through the same engine — no two calculations, no two results
Cumulative TrackingThe income tax base accrues all year; bracket jumps happen by themselves
Employee SGK Share 14%Law 5510 — deducted from gross automatically
Unemployment Insurance 1%Law 4447 — its own item, its own line
Employer SharesSGK 20.5% (incentive applied) + unemployment 2% — the real cost in front of you

Minimum Wage ExemptionIncome and stamp tax exemptions applied automatically

02 · REQUEST FLOWS

Requests from staff, approval from you

Leave, advance, expense — none of it gets lost in a chat thread. Staff ask from the portal, you approve from the panel; an approved advance offsets the period's payroll by itself.

Leave Advance Expense Task

Leave Management

Annual, excuse, medical — the request lands from the portal, approval is one click.

  • Leave request from the portal
  • One-click approve or reject
  • Record kept in the employee file
See the Flow

Advance & Offset

An approved advance is never forgotten — it offsets the period's payroll by itself.

  • Advance request from the portal
  • Approval goes on record
  • Auto-offset on payroll
See the Engine

Expense Approval

Staff enter the expense with its receipt; you approve or reject with a reason.

  • Receipt-backed entry
  • Reasoned approve / reject
  • Tied to the payment flow
See the Process
No request is left hanging. Every request has a record, every record has an outcome — approval or rejection, with its reason, in the file.
03 · ASSETS & HANDOVER

Hand it over, put it on record — who, what, when: always on file

Laptop, phone, vehicle... Whatever you hand to an employee, its form stays in the system. Handover and return both close with digital acknowledgment — the "I never got that" debate ends. Task tracking lives in the same place: assign, follow, close.

Form PDF Digital acknowledgment Handover & return tracking Task assignment
04 · EMPLOYEE PORTAL

The payslip in your employee's pocket: view, download, sign

Labor Code Art. 37 gives employees the right to see their payslip — the portal turns that into one tap. Staff view the payslip, download the PDF and sign it with digital approval; leave and advance requests start from the same place. You just approve.

05 · ARCHIVE & LEGAL ASSURANCE

The payroll file never forgets: it locks, it keeps, it warns you

When the period closes, the file closes — signed payslips don't change, approval trails don't vanish, and when rates go stale the system speaks up.

Payroll Archive & Lock

Paid and signed payslips are locked — past periods never change silently.

  • Paid payroll is locked
  • Signed records don't change
  • Period-by-period archive
