Section 1:
In the left navigation, click Payroll. The Overview tab is selected by default when you open the Payroll module. If you're on another tab, click Overview to return to the dashboard.
The Summary section at the top of the Overview page shows four key metrics for the selected time period (Today, 7D, 1M, or 12M). Each card also shows a trend arrow indicating change from the previous period.
Total payroll cost: The total amount paid out across all payroll runs in the selected period — including salaries, taxes, pensions, and processing fees.
Active employees: The number of employees currently active in your payroll. The trend shows the change in headcount vs the previous period.
Total tax: The total PAYE tax calculated and (if remittance is enabled) remitted across all runs.
Total pension: The total pension contributions processed across all runs (₦0 if pension is not configured or remittance is off).
Section 2 — Payroll Cost per Department & per Employee
Scrolling down the Overview page reveals two side-by-side analytics charts. Both use a donut visualisation showing the top 5 by cost, with a ranked list below the chart.
Navigating to Payroll History
To view individual payroll runs that have already been submitted and processed, click the Payrolls tab at the top of the Payroll page (also accessible as Payroll history in the left sub-navigation). Each run shows its name, total cost, number of employees, payment date, and status.
Click any run to see a full breakdown of every employee's gross pay, net pay, deductions, and taxes.
Use the Export button to download a payroll run as a spreadsheet for records or auditing.
Each employee's payslip is accessible from their profile under the Payslips tab.
