Human Resources
Staff master, attendance and the monthly payroll cycle.
Human Resources
The HR module covers the staff lifecycle from hire to exit. Two main areas: Staff Management (people, attendance, leave, shifts) and Salary & Payroll (the monthly pay cycle). One follows from the other — attendance captured in Staff Management drives the salary calculation in Payroll.
Concepts to know first
- Staff record — the master for one employee, with personal, employment, pay, bank and document tabs.
- Salary structure — a named template of allowances, deductions and statutory contributions. Many employees share one structure.
- Pay cycle — the monthly run: structure → attendance → calc → review → post → pay → slip.
- Statutory — PF, ESI, PT, TDS and Form-16 outputs ZN ERP generates from posted payroll.
Typical daily flow
- Daily: capture attendance — biometric import, manual mark, or roster auto-mark.
- Daily: process leave applications as they arrive; the system applies policy and updates balances.
- Month-end: run Salary Calc, review the register, make adjustments, post.
- Pay day: generate the bank advice file, print salary slips, email slips.
- Statutory cycle: PF ECR upload, ESI return, PT challan, monthly TDS deposit, annual Form-16.
