Introducing Payroll Manager: Full clarity across payroll cycles

What is Payroll Manager?

Payroll Manager gives you a clear, end-to-end view of payroll results and how they translate directly into invoices. Instead of piecing together reports or relying on manual checks, you now have a single, structured place in the Playroll dashboard to understand:

• What was paid
• Why it changed
• How it impacts your billing

It turns payroll from a black box into something you can confidently review, explain, and trust cycle after cycle.

Who Payroll Manager is for

Payroll Manager is built for teams that need visibility without added complexity, including:

• Finance teams who want confidence in payroll outcomes and invoice accuracy.
• Operations and People teams managing growing, distributed workforces.
• Founders and leaders who need clear answers without digging through reports.

If you’ve ever asked:

• Why did this invoice change?
• How much does this employee really cost?
• What changed between last month and this one?
  

Payroll Manager is for you.

Common Ways Teams Use Payroll Manager

Understand payroll at an employee level

View payroll results per employee, see how each individual contributes to total costs, and track payroll history from their start date. This is especially useful for headcount planning, budgeting, and audits.

Track payroll changes over time

Compare payroll cycles to quickly see what changed and why – whether it’s a salary update, leave adjustment, one-off payment, or FX movement. Variance checks become faster and far less manual.

Connect payroll directly to invoices

See exactly how payroll results roll up into invoice totals, giving invoices the context they’ve historically lacked. This means fewer follow-ups, quicker reviews, and more confident approvals.

Add and manage payroll costs in seconds

Quickly add new cost items like bonuses, commissions, or allowances ahead of an upcoming payroll, all in one place. Team admins can make last-minute adjustments without jumping between systems or spreadsheets, ensuring everything is captured accurately before payroll is processed.
