Payroll that lives inside your trade ERP

opsPhlo Payroll connects pay, time, expenses and the general ledger in one system, so every salary, deduction and accrual posts straight to your accounts. No re-keying, no spreadsheet reconciliations, no disconnected payroll bureau.

What it does

One ledger for people and trade

Most commodity traders run payroll in a separate tool, then re-enter the totals into finance by hand. opsPhlo removes that gap. Payroll is a module of the same platform that runs your contracts, inventory and accounts, so labour cost flows through to the general ledger automatically.

Calculate gross-to-net, apply statutory and voluntary deductions, handle pensions and benefits, and post the full payroll journal in one run. Finance sees the impact the moment payroll is approved, with full audit trail back to every employee record.

Capabilities

Everything you need to pay your people accurately

From gross-to-net calculation through to statutory filing and ledger posting, opsPhlo Payroll covers the full pay cycle for trading businesses operating across entities and jurisdictions.

Gross-to-net processing

Calculate earnings, deductions, taxes and net pay in a single run, with rules you configure once and reuse every period.

Time and attendance

Capture timesheets, overtime and shift premiums, then feed approved hours straight into the pay calculation.

Statutory deductions and filing

Apply taxes, social contributions and statutory deductions correctly, with reporting structured for your local authority.

Pensions and benefits

Manage pension schemes, benefit plans and employer contributions, with deductions tracked per employee and per scheme.

Multi-entity, multi-currency

Pay staff across legal entities and currencies, with each payroll run posting to the correct entity ledger automatically.

Automatic GL posting

The payroll journal posts directly to the general ledger, so salary, tax and accrual balances are always current.

Employee self-service

Let employees view payslips, request leave and update details, reducing the admin load on your finance team.

Cost allocation

Allocate labour cost to projects, departments and cost centres so margins reflect the true cost of every operation.

Audit and compliance

Every change is logged with a full audit trail, giving you a defensible record for auditors and regulators.

Scaling a trading workforce with integrated payroll
Why opsPhlo

Payroll as a module, not another silo

Bolt-on payroll tools create a costly gap between HR and finance. Numbers move on spreadsheets, errors creep in, and month-end takes longer than it should. opsPhlo closes that gap by making payroll part of the same platform that runs your trade and accounts.

  • One source of truth for labour cost, from payslip to general ledger.
  • Start with core payroll, then add time, benefits and self-service over time.
  • Total Cost of Operation less than one-fifth of traditional systems like SAP.
  • Cloud delivery, zero capital outlay and a fast go-live.

FAQs

Questions, answered

Is Payroll a separate product or part of opsPhlo?

Payroll is a module of the opsPhlo platform, the same system that runs your CTRM, inventory and accounts. It shares one database and one ledger, so payroll cost flows through to finance with no re-keying.

Can opsPhlo handle payroll across multiple entities and currencies?

Yes. You can pay staff across legal entities and currencies, with each payroll run posting to the correct entity ledger automatically, which suits trading groups operating in more than one jurisdiction.

Does payroll post to the general ledger automatically?

Yes. Once a payroll run is approved, the journal posts directly to the general ledger, so salary, tax and accrual balances are always current and reconciled.

Do we have to implement everything at once?

No. You can start with core payroll and add time and attendance, benefits and employee self-service over time, in line with your priorities. Progressive adoption keeps the project low risk and fast to go live.
