An automated payroll process with Employee Central Payroll

Payroll driving

The thing to work with payroll is not necessarily a simple matter. You have to understand a relatively complicated set of regulations, you have to make sure that all the details are correct; you simply have to be embarrassingly precise. There is no such thing as “just about” in payroll . Everything here must be correct.

Around Norwegian companies, there are a number of very skilled payroll employees, each of whom has valuable expertise. Many companies have complex solutions, and these are often based on manual routines. All in all, many companies are simply too dependent on individual employees. What do you do the day one of your key employees retires? Or if she decides to change employers?

These questions can easily cause stress, but fortunately there is a solution to it all. The solution is called SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll, and this is the solution that allows you to move regulations, logic and manual routines from the employees' heads and into a system. This is also the solution that reveals errors before payroll actually run. Sounds amazing, right?

A cloud-based payroll solution delivered in a state-of-the-art interface

SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central Payroll is a cloud-based payroll solution delivered in a state-of-the-art interface. The solution features the same robust payroll engine found in SAP HCM, a solution that is well known as a solid and stable payroll solution in most payroll departments.

The solution allows you to automate all the steps in the payroll process and you get the opportunity to set up checks on data consistency and employee data, even before the first payroll run.

The solution allows you to set up your own checks and validations of payroll-relevant data, and it comes with separate roles for payroll manager and payroll employee. This gives you the opportunity to control access to various tasks, while giving you full control over the progress of the ongoing payroll run.

How does this affect the payroll employees?

We would say that Employee Central Payroll is a gift for anyone who works with payroll . Automation, systematization and simplification of processes will give you a more predictable workday and a smoother workload. Because logic and regulations are moved into the system, the risk of manual errors will be significantly reduced, and you can focus on other important tasks.

Wouldn't it be nice to have a payroll system that allowed you to both uncover and correct errors before payroll actually run? How to avoid tasks piling up right before payroll will be run, and you avoid (or at least reduce) the need for overtime work.

Because it's easy to move tasks between employees, it will also be easier to take a day off and to take vacations. Sounds good, right?
