Introduction
The Technology nowadays plays a very important role in our society. It lessens human error by using machines. It makes us work easier and faster and reduces materials and labor costs. Manual processes and transactions can be computerized by using software applications or computer systems to make work easier. Nowadays, computer based system is commonly used by every company and institution and one of this is the Payroll System.
The Payroll System is the heart of the Human Resource Management of an Organization, Payroll System is one of the many transactions that can be processed on a computer. The proponents worked on a custom-made payroll system done for the specific need of an organization to provide an option to generate the salary automatically every month. This software also equipped with to enter the attendance of each employee in the organization, it helps them to track each employee attendance, based on this we can generate the salary. It also has option to generate the report for payroll deductions.
Description of the Existing System
The proposed payroll system provides accurate and efficient computation of employees’ salary. The computation which includes deductions takes less time to accomplish. Attendance recording and monitoring thru the Daily Time Record is included in the system which makes getting the total number of hours worked fast and easy. The payroll covers all the transactions for all types of employees and contains payroll information of employees such as the ID, name, position, address, etc. who would receive an automatically generated salary for each pay period.
The payroll process starts by getting the hours worked by the employees within the inclusive dates. After getting the hours worked, the system automatically computes salary for the given pay period. The salary of the permanent employees is based on the position while the wages of the employees with contractual status is based on the departmental project budget. The Leave of Absences of regular employees is deducted from the leave points, which is 1.25 days gain per month. The computation includes deductions of personal shares of which are: GSIS, Pag-ibig, Philhealth, and withholding tax and other deductions such as loans. Accurate calculations are done in order to come up with the correct amount of salary. Computation for the Benefit and Allowance of permanent employees that receive Allowances such as 13th month pay, clothing allowance and productivity allowance is also included in the payroll.
