A workshop with piece-rate operators
- Today. Pieces written on a slip at the machine and totalled on Saturday.
- With Takkada. Pieces entered each day by work type, and pay worked out at your rate.
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 by pieces, with the overtime rate and the deductions that apply to that person.

Enter the pieces made each day by work type, and pay is worked out from your rate per piece.

Daily-wage staff are paid for the days they work and their paid leave, and Sundays and holidays are not paid for daily wage.

Give an advance and take it back from the next pay or in parts.

The daily-wage slip shows paid days times the day rate, in English or Hindi.
| What you need | Tally with Takkada | Slips, notebook and Tally |
|---|---|---|
| Pieces | Entered each day by work type at your rate. | Written on slips and totalled at week end. |
| Paid days | Days worked plus paid leave, from attendance. | Counted from the register. |
| Overtime | Worked out from in and out times at your rate. | Added by hand, if at all. |
| Advances | Taken back from pay on their own. | Remembered and deducted by hand. |
| Payslip | English or Hindi, with the working on each line. | Usually none. |
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.
