Payroll processing outsourcing:

Payroll Process Outsourcing

Other than just offering the solution to our customers, we are now taking up payroll processing as an outsourced service. The service started late 2011 and has two companies under the arrangement. Payroll process outsourcing includes:

  • Receiving of payroll data in standard template files. This includes employees, payments, benefits, deductions etc. For permanent staff, only changes to payments and deductions are necessary on a monthly basis. Daily rated and casual employees timesheet details are submitted on monthly basis.
  • Data cleansing and validation: This is necessary to ensure all data submitted is in the right format
  • Data import: This involves importing of the raw data into Icepay database for processing
  • Payroll processing: After all data has been sanitized, the Icepay system is used to process the payroll
  • Process validation: This involves verification of processed data againist raw data submitted for accuracy. Where any discrepancies are found, the processing is rolled back and processed again before posting
  • Customer verification: Key analytical reports are sent to the customer for verification and confirmation. Once the customer confirms data accuracy, payroll is posted marking the closure of any changes.
  • Monthly reports submission: With all having been confirmed as correct, the final reports are submitted to the customer. These include EFT files, salary payments analysis, statutory deductions remittance, third party deductions remittance and employees payslips.
  • Data backups: Depending on the agreement and if the customer has purchased Icepay solution licenses, database backups for the processed month are sent for further reference and safe custody. This allows the customer to query any reports from the system on need basis.
