Icepay offers a specialized payroll package that you will not get from any other payroll software. Key features are highlighted here, and a free demo is available for you to try out and confirm.
  • Multi user setup – Several users with different roles can access the same application from different computers. This allows for shared duties and ease of bulk data entry. 
  • System security – Access control by use of user codes and user profiles (groups). This allows for users with the same functionality to be given access to only the areas they need to access. The system is password protected.
  • Intelligent data import - We appreciate the need to have a data import functionality for commonly used data sections and Icepay ships with an intelligent data import module. This handles deductions, time sheet, other incomes (one off monthly allowances), and employees data. Payroll numbers are used to map the raw data to the employees and the system has an intelligent resolution module for non-matching payroll numbers! The system takes in Excel data format. 
  • Error tolerance – Authorized users can process the payroll, view the reports and if need arise to correct some data, roll back, correct the errors and reprocess. This is period based and can be weekly, fortnightly or monthly. Monthly processing incorporates weekly processing data to enable statutory deductions remittance.
