Payroll Register Template

Template tabs explained

• Employee master – stores employment details, tax status, and bank references
• Payroll sheet – monthly input area with built-in EPF/ETF/APIT logic
• Approval log – space for HR and finance sign-off with timestamp
• Statutory summary – aggregated employer vs employee contributions for submissions

Implementation checklist

• Update employee status (full-time, contract, resigned) before payroll processing
• Validate attendance or timesheet data for overtime calculations
• Review payroll exceptions (negative pay, high allowances) prior to approval
• Generate bank upload file or payslip extract for communication

Governance reminders for Sri Lankan teams

If approvals or reconciliations start to lag, hand the register to the WinCore payroll pod or request HR documentation support via /services/hr.

• Log approvals from HR and finance before releasing bank files to comply with EPF audit expectations
• Attach supporting schedules for incentive or allowance payouts so Inland Revenue questions can be closed quickly
• Track outstanding recoveries and salary advances and reconcile them with management accounts each quarter
