Payroll

NextHealth Flow

Sold with Flow HR, which holds the staff records it pays

Payroll runs monthly salaries in NextHealth Flow from the staff records held in Flow HR. Each member of staff has a salary structure built from components, and approved overtime, loan instalments and salary advances are picked up by the next run. A run is approved by HR, then by finance, then signed off before it is marked paid, and Flow produces the bank upload file for WPS salary payments, the WPS authorisation form and the payroll register.

Why it is hard to do well

Payroll is only as right as the records behind it

Payroll from the records HR already keeps

When payroll lives in a separate spreadsheet, every new starter, leaver and overtime claim has to be typed twice. Flow Payroll pays from the staff records in Flow HR.

Set up once

Each member of staff has a salary structure built from components such as basic salary, housing and transport. Overtime is logged and approved, and loans and salary advances are approved and then deducted in instalments by the runs that follow.

Approved before it is paid

Each monthly run is calculated for every member of staff and checked line by line. HR approves it, then finance, then a final approver signs it off, and only then is it marked paid. Every approval is recorded with its remarks.

Ready for the bank and for finance

Flow produces the salary file your bank uploads for WPS payments, listing each employee's IBAN and net pay, together with the WPS authorisation form. Finance has the payroll register, which exports to Excel.
