Pay by the day, the hour or the piece, worked out from the days and pieces your team actually puts in.

Daily and piece-rate pay is usually counted from slips and a notebook, then added up at the end of the week or month. The Staff and Payroll add-on keeps the days and pieces as they happen and works the pay out from your rates.

  • Monthly, daily, hourly or piece-rate pay per person
  • Daily-wage staff paid for days worked and paid leave
  • Pieces entered each day at your rate per piece
  • Advances taken back and slips in English or Hindi

The PF, ESI, professional tax, labour welfare fund and income-tax rates in the app are worked out from the rates it holds and are not yet checked by a CA; have your CA check the figures before you pay or upload them. Whether a weekly off or holiday is paid for daily-rated workers can depend on your state's rules and your agreement with them; check with your CA. If you pay for it, put that person on monthly pay.
