What is Payroll Software That Runs Itself From Attendance, India PF/ESI + UAE WPS?

WappBlaster Payroll auto-computes salary from attendance, overtime, late, leave and approved expense, handles India PF, ESI, PT, TDS, LWF and produces UAE WPS-compatible salary files for bank upload, with payslips delivered on WhatsApp. There is no standalone payroll licence: it ships with the same suite bill as office attendance and optional Field Tracker. Mixed workforces typically enable both so office and field time feed one payroll run.

The problem

What this replaces

Excel payroll = 3 days every month

Re-enter attendance, calculate OT manually, look up PF/ESI rates, generate payslips, email, repeat next month.

Statutory rules keep changing

PF wage ceiling, ESI threshold, PT slabs, every state different, every year different. Manual = errors.

Staff don't trust payslips

Late, missing, sometimes wrong. Builds resentment, fuels attrition.

In depth

More about Payroll Software

What does it mean for payroll to 'run from attendance'?

It means the days worked, overtime hours, late deductions, leave days, comp-offs, holidays and approved expenses are read directly from the Attendance, Leave and Expense modules, not re-typed into a payroll spreadsheet. The single dataset is the single source of truth, so reconciliation is structural, not manual.

The downstream effect is that statutory filings are mathematically consistent with the attendance record, which makes audits painless and disputes rare.

Key takeaway: Auto-from-attendance payroll cuts month-end work by 70–95% and removes the largest source of statutory filing errors: manual re-entry.

India statutory: what 'compliant' actually means in 2026

Compliant payroll in India means correct application of: EPF (with VPF option, current wage ceiling), ESI (current wage threshold and rate), per-state Professional Tax slabs, TDS under either old or new regime per employee election, LWF where applicable, and statutory filings, ECR for PF, ESI challan, PT challan, Form 16, Form 12BA, generated each cycle.

WappBlaster maintains the rate tables centrally and pushes updates automatically, so when a state changes its PT slab or the EPFO updates the wage ceiling, every customer's next cycle uses the new value without manual configuration.

UAE WPS: getting the SIF file right

UAE Wage Protection System (WPS) is mandatory for salary payouts in the UAE. The bank-uploaded SIF file must match the labour-card data exactly, names, IDs, salaries, or the file is rejected and salary delays follow.

WappBlaster generates the SIF in the format accepted by Emirates NBD, ADCB, FAB, DIB, Mashreq and other major banks, includes accommodation/transport splits where required, and computes end-of-service gratuity per the UAE Labour Law (1/21 of monthly salary for first five years, 1/15 thereafter, capped at two years' wages).

Frequently asked questions

The questions we get asked most about Payroll Software.

Is Payroll included with Attendance and Field Tracker?

Yes. Payroll is on the same Attendance Suite subscription, no separate payroll SKU or extra module fee. You pay the office attendance bundle (from ₹2,100/year for 7 staff) plus Field Tracker users when you track mobile staff; using both together is how most customers keep one payroll cycle for everyone.

How does payroll auto-run from attendance?

Attendance, OT, late, leave and approved expense are pulled from the Attendance, Leave and Expense modules at month-end. The system computes gross, deductions, statutory contributions and net pay automatically. You review and approve; the cycle takes minutes, not days.

Link to this answer
Which Indian statutory rules are supported?

PF (including VPF), ESI, Professional Tax (per-state slabs), TDS (old + new regime per-employee toggle), LWF, and Form 16 / Form 12BA generation. ECR PF challan, ESI challan and PT challan are downloadable per cycle.

Does it generate UAE WPS files?

Yes. WappBlaster produces SIF (Salary Information File) in the WPS format accepted by all major UAE banks, Emirates NBD, ADCB, FAB, DIB, Mashreq and others. End-of-service gratuity, leave encashment and accommodation/transport splits are built-in.

Link to this answer
Can I handle daily-wage workers?

Yes. Daily-wage staff are paid per day worked (from Attendance) within the same payroll cycle as monthly staff. Both run together, both produce payslips, both go through statutory.

Link to this answer
How are payslips delivered?

Encrypted PDF payslips are sent to each employee's WhatsApp by default. An optional in-app portal in six languages (English, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil, Arabic) is available for staff who prefer it. Year-end packs for tax filing are generated automatically.
