Payroll Software That Runs Itself From Attendance, India PF/ESI + UAE WPS
Payroll software is the engine that turns a month of attendance and pay rules into net salaries, statutory deductions and payment files. Payroll adds nothing to your bill: it is included in the Attendance Suite you subscribe to for office attendance and/or Field Tracker (take both if some staff work on site and some on the move). Auto-compute salary from attendance, overtime, late, leave and expense. India statutory (PF/ESI/PT/TDS/LWF) and UAE WPS-compatible salary file in one click.
Payroll software from WappBlaster closes the month by locking attendance first, so days worked, overtime, late marks, leave, comp-offs and approved expenses are already in place when HR opens the preview. The owner adjusts advances, loan recoveries, fines or bonuses, then finalises with one click. For India, the engine applies EPF with the VPF option, ESI, per-state Professional Tax slabs, LWF and TDS under the old or new regime per employee, and the rate tables update centrally whenever a ceiling or slab changes. For the UAE it builds the SIF file in the layout large banks such as Emirates NBD, ADCB and FAB accept, and works out each leaver's end-of-service gratuity by the UAE Labour Law formula. Daily-wage and salaried staff share one cycle, bank files for NEFT, IMPS and RTGS are generated, and encrypted payslips go out on WhatsApp. Payroll is bundled with the Attendance Suite from ₹2100 a year for 7 employees, with no standalone licence to buy.

The problem
Payroll Software: what it 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
Payroll software: the full Payroll Software guide
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 builds the SIF in the layout that Emirates NBD, ADCB, FAB, DIB, Mashreq and the other large UAE banks take, 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).

Salary computed from attendance, India PF/ESI/PT/TDS, UAE WPS files, WhatsApp payslips, daily-wage handling and bank transfer formats are not priced on their own. They belong to the same Attendance Suite subscription that covers Attendance and Field Tracker, which starts at ₹2100/year for 7 staff (see the pricing page), and you reach every module from one login.
The built-in statutory rules are India's and the UAE's, so a payroll in another country needs its own tool.
If attendance is not recorded in WappBlaster, the automatic salary calculation loses its main input.
Payroll software FAQ
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 ₹2100/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.
When the month closes, WappBlaster reads days present, overtime, late marks, leave and approved claims straight out of the Attendance, Leave and Expense modules. It then works out gross pay, each deduction, the statutory contributions and the final take-home figure by itself. Your part is to check the preview and approve it, which takes minutes rather than days.
PF with VPF, ESI, Professional Tax using each state’s slabs, TDS with a per-employee choice of old or new regime, and LWF, plus generation of Form 16 and Form 12BA. Every cycle you can download the ECR for PF along with the ESI and PT challans.
Yes. WappBlaster creates the SIF (Salary Information File) in the WPS layout that every major UAE bank accepts for upload, among them Emirates NBD, ADCB, FAB, DIB and Mashreq. Gratuity at end of service, leave encashment and separate accommodation and transport amounts are handled inside the same run.
Yes. Workers on a daily rate are paid for the days Attendance shows them present, and they go through the very same payroll run as salaried employees. Each group gets payslips and each group has statutory deductions applied.
On WhatsApp: by default every employee gets their payslip there as an encrypted PDF. Staff who would rather log in can use the optional in-app portal, available in English, Hindi, Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil and Arabic. The year-end payslip bundle for filing taxes is produced without anyone requesting it.
Do you support multiple Indian states in one payroll?
Yes. Per-state Professional Tax, per-state holiday calendar and per-state labour rules are applied automatically by employee location. One payroll run handles all states.
How much does payroll software cost with WappBlaster?
Payroll has no separate price; it belongs to the Attendance Suite, whose office bundle costs ₹2100 a year for the first 7 employees. Field Tracker users are added on top only for employees who work on the move.
Can payroll software calculate UAE end-of-service gratuity?
Yes. Gratuity follows UAE Labour Law: 1/21 of monthly salary for each of the first five years of service and 1/15 for later years, capped at two years' wages. It is worked out in the same run that builds the WPS salary file.
