Wageloch Payroll

This guide will cover the general setup of Wageloch Payroll, it’s usage and processes when paying staff.

Wageloch Payroll is our newest product; we may be making changes as time progresses and we’ll update information in this guide.

Background Configuration

Whether you're a new or existing client with Wageloch implementing Payroll for the first time, there's always a little bit of setup required in the back end of our system.

While most of this information will be based on your award setup, we will need to know of any requirements to pay:

• Allowances (car, phone, uniform, travel, etc.)
• Deductions (child support, salary sacrifice, novated lease if not direct debited)
• Bonuses
• Backpay or Redundancy

Please let your Wageloch implementation manager know of your needs to ensure this is setup correctly.

Note: If you're using an existing payroll system and would like to complete parallel runs, please let us know!
