Your employee records live in Payora and feed payroll, attendance and leave. HR maintains them.

Adding an employee

Use Add Employee, or Import CSV for a batch. The new-employee form has Personal, Employment, Compensation and Leave Balances steps.

Keeping records current

On an existing employee you'll also find Deductions, Earnings and Opening Balances tabs. Update pay, work schedule, department and personal details as they change, so every downstream calculation stays correct.

Leave

Leave policies, requests and balances are managed under Leave Management and Leave Policies; a leave request routes to a Manager for approval, and balances update once it's approved.

Where to go next

  • Setting up compensation and pay schedules
  • Running your first payroll
