Automated timesheets and pay slip distribution

Let employees know their payslips are ready to view via push notification or email. They can access payslips from the Swag app. Managers can create, amend and approve timesheets directly in Swag and data is calculated and fed into the pay run automatically.

Leave requests and termination calculations

Do you have a combination of staff all on one payrun? With Payroll automations you can accommodate different leave entitlement scenarios with ease. Accrual entitlements need only be set up once and the automation will do the rest for you. We automatically process all leave types to be paid out and calculate the PAYG according to the ATO specifications.
