Run SA payroll without a second product
Monthly pay runs, statutory deductions, payslips, EMP201, and bank salary files, included in VoltaBooks.
Monthly pay runs
Salary and hourly staff on one payroll. PAYE, UIF, SDL, pension, and medical aid are calculated per employee, then posted to your ledger.
Payslips & EMP201
BCEA-ready payslip PDFs with your business letterhead, EMP201 monthly summaries with filing reminders, and IRP5 draft export for year-end.
Bank salary files
Export net-pay files for FNB, Capitec, Standard Bank, or generic bulk payment after you run payroll.
Rosters → payroll
Publish shift rosters from Books, then pull hours into the pay run so hourly staff are paid from the schedule you already set.
Employee portal
Staff get their own login
Invite employees to a dedicated portal for payslips, leave, published rosters, and warning acknowledgments.
Employee portal
Invite staff with their own login. They see payslips, leave, roster, and warnings on phone or desktop.
Leave requests
Staff request leave with calendar-day counts (offs and fixed SA public holidays handled). Managers approve or adjust days; balances reserve on pending.
Warnings acknowledge
Issue warning PDFs from Books. Employees download and digitally acknowledge with name and timestamp, which shows back in payroll.
Accounting
Books that stay ready for your accountant
VAT, invoices, bills, bank reconciliation, and management reports. Optional POS catalog sync if you also run VoltaPOS.
VAT & compliance
Track VAT, prepare returns, and keep ledger entries organised for your accountant.
Invoices & reports
Invoices, quotes, bills, P&L, balance sheet, and budgets in one place.
POS catalog sync
Optional: pull products and stock on hand from VoltaPOS for invoicing, or push SKUs from Books into VoltaPOS. Books also works on its own if you do not run a point of sale.
