Payroll teams may use spreadsheets or manual processes to track salary components, overtime, leave, and payslips. Zoho Payroll can automate supported workflows; validate calculations and reporting against your UAE requirements before using them for payroll decisions.
Calculate monthly salaries, allowances, deductions, and overtime automatically based on your configured salary structures. Run payroll in minutes instead of hours. Every calculation is stored with a full audit trail.
Generate professional payslips automatically each month in Arabic or English. Employees access their payslips, historical pay records, and deduction summaries via the self-service portal or Zoho People mobile app — no HR requests needed.
Approved leave from Zoho People flows automatically into payroll calculations for that month. Annual leave encashment, sick leave deductions, and unpaid leave adjustments are handled without any manual re-entry between HR and Finance.
Gratuity workflows can be configured to agreed rules, but the calculation method must be confirmed by a qualified UAE adviser and tested before use.
Configure salary components: basic, housing, transport, phone allowances, and deduction heads like loans, salary advances, and social insurance contributions. Each deduction is tracked separately with full per-employee detail.
Pre-built payroll reports for department summaries, individual earnings, YTD totals, and gratuity provisions. Journal entries post automatically to Zoho Books so your accountant sees payroll costs without manual entries.
Every Oman company has a different mix of salary grades, allowances, and deduction rules. We configure Zoho Payroll to match your actual payroll structure — not a generic default that requires workarounds:

Getting payroll right requires meticulous setup and a thorough test before going live. Here's exactly how the implementation works.
We review your current payroll process — salary grades, allowance types, deduction rules, overtime rates, leave encashment policies, and any special agreements. We document every rule that needs to be configured into Zoho Payroll.
We design the salary structures, earning components (basic, housing, transport, custom allowances), deduction components (loans, advances, social insurance), and gratuity calculation rules inside Zoho Payroll matching your actual payroll policy.
Employee payroll records are migrated into Zoho Payroll. Integration with Zoho People (for leave data) and Zoho Books (for journal entries) is configured and tested. Historical YTD data is imported so reporting is complete from the first month.
We run a full parallel payroll for one month — processing the same period in both Zoho Payroll and your current system — and compare every figure. Discrepancies are reviewed and corrected until outputs match. Only then do we proceed to go-live.
Zoho Payroll goes live as your primary payroll system. We train the payroll team on running monthly payrolls, managing special adjustments, generating reports, and handling new joiner and leaver processing. Post-launch support is available via WhatsApp throughout.
