INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Payroll management system encompasses all the tasks involved in paying an organizations
employees. It typically involves keeping track of hours worked and ensuring that employees
receive the appropriate amount of pay. It also includes calculating taxes and social security,as well as ensuring that they are properly withheld and processed. Depending on the
company in question, a full range of other deductions may be calculated, withheld, and
processed as part of payroll administration. Additionally, the processing of contractor
payments may fall under the umbrella of payroll administration.
The specific tasks involved in payroll administration tend to vary according to the needs of
each unique company or organization. For example, some companies have workers that
receive commissions in addition to salaries. In these companies, including commissions in
employee salaries is a part of payroll administration. For some companies, it also involves
assigning exempt or non-exempt status to workers, adding bonuses into paychecks,
calculating overtime payments, and adhering to applicable employment laws.
Handling payroll-related problems are part of payroll administration as well. If an employee
is paid an incorrect amount or a direct deposit fails to go through, both things are payroll
administration issues. Likewise tax filing and deduction errors are payroll administration
matters as well.
Payroll administration can be very simple, involving the payment of just a handful of
employees, or very complicated, involving payroll for thousands of employees and
contractors. In some, very small companies, payroll may be handled by the owner of the

company or an employee. However, other companies may have many employees to pay and
keep track of necessitating a well planned, efficient payroll administration system.
Some companies choose to handle payroll administration in-house, often creating a separate
department just for the handling of payroll. Often, such organizations purchase software to
streamline payroll-related tasks. Some companies even have special software designed for
them, creating a payroll system that is tailored to their unique requirements.
Many companies decide to outsource payroll administration to other companies. Payroll
administration companies handle most, if not all, payroll-related tasks for the companies
they serve. Some payroll administration companies also provide management and human
resource assistance as well. Many payroll administration companies tailortheir services to
meet the needs of organizations of all sizes and types. Some even offer on-site help and
payroll consultations as well.
Payroll is defined as a method of administrating employees salaries in the organizations. The
process consists of calculation of salaries and tax deductions of the employees,
administrating the retirement benefits and disbursements of salaries to employees. It can also
be called as an accounts activity which undertakes the salary administration of employees in
t h e o rgan i za t i on . Administrating the employees salaries is not an easy task, the HR and
accounts department work together to calculate and disburse the salary to the employees.
Thus, payroll management can be further subdivided into two sub processes, i.e. Payroll
accounting and payroll administration. Payroll refers to the administration of employees'
salaries, wages, bonuses, net pay, and deductions. It consist of the employee ID, employee
name, date of joining, daily attendance record, basic salary, allowances, overtime pay, bonus,
commissions, incentives, pay for holidays, vacations and sickness, value of meals and
lodging etc. There are some deductions such as PF, taxes, loan installments or advances
taken by employee.

PAYROLL IS ADMINISTERED ON MONTHLY BASIS AND ANNUAL
BASIS.
While administrating the monthly payroll basic salary, HRA, conveyance, and other special
allowances such mobile, etc are considered. There are some deductions.
Allowances, incentives, bonuses and reimbursements are based on organizational policies.
Some organizations provided the allowances on a fixed rate say 10% or 12% of the basic
salary. Some organizations go for performance based incentives.
PAYROLL MANAGEMENT PROCESSES
Calculation of gross salaries and deductible amounts is a tedious task which involves risk.
Some of the organizations use the traditional manual method of payroll processing and some
go for the advanced payroll processing software. An organization opts for any of the
following payroll processing methods available:
a) Manual System:- Manual payroll system is the traditional payroll system which involves
pen and ink, adding machine, spreadsheet, etc instead of computers, software and other

Employee Insurance & Provident fund processing
Quality Audit procedures & planning
PAYROLL SOFTWARE SYSTEM:-
Effective software systems contain two basic systems operating in conjunction: an
evaluation system and a feedback system. The main aim of the evaluation system is to (if
any). This gap is the shortfall that occurs when performance does not meet the standard set
by the organization as acceptable. The main aim of the feedback system is to inform the
employee about the quality of the software provided by the organization. (However, the
information flow is not exclusively one way. The Technology team also receives feedback
from the employee about software problems, etc.)One of the best ways to appreciate the
purposes of performance appraisal is to look at it from the different viewpoints of the main
stakeholders: the employee and the organization.
a) Employee Viewpoint:- From the employee viewpoint, the purpose of software
used to calculate payroll process as it help to improve software skill and reward
the employees according to their performances.
b) Organizational Viewpoint:- From the organization's viewpoint, one of the most
important reasons for having a software is to establish and uphold the principle of
accountability.
.
For decades it has been known to researchers that one of the chief causes of organizational
failure is "non-alignment of responsibility and accountability." Non-alignment occurs
where employees are given responsibilities and duties, but are not held accountable for the
way in which those responsibilities and duties are performed. What typically happens is
that several individuals or work units appear to have overlapping role.
5
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
6/77
The overlap allows - indeed actively encourages - each individual or business unit to "pass
the buck" to the others. Ultimately, in the severely non-aligned system, no one is
accountable for anything. In this event, the principle of accountability breaks down
completely. Organizational failure is the only possible outcome
In cases where the non-alignment is not so severe, the organization may continue to
function, albeit inefficiently. Like a poorly made or badly tuned engine, the non-aligned
organization may run, but it will be sluggish, costly and unreliable. One of the principal
aims of performance appraisal is to make people accountable. The objective is to align
responsibility and accountability at every organizational level.
ROLE OF HR IN PAY ROLL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:-
Earlier payroll was considered to be a part of account department and there was no direct
interface between Account and H.R. department related to pay roll management system.
Performance appraisal of an employee was more ritual and done irregularly in an
organization and that performance not related to pay.
In countries like US, even before 15 years Payroll was treated as part of the Compensation
& Benefits Management, which is basically HR function. Payroll, as you can see, is only
an event, which is happening at a frequency as may be stipulated by the country/company
rules, and is guided by the policy on Compensation & Benefits Management program of
any company. Other countries gradually adopted the concept.
Payroll is also a sensitive matter as employees may have queries when they receive their
payslips. Not to generalise, Accounts personnel are not very much the right persons to have
the kind of human relations skills to answer such queries with empathy and patience. So,
Payroll also became a matter of human relations over years when employees mattered .
6
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
7/77
Another reason is the salaries have become more and more linked with employee
performance and retention with a substantial part of salary paid as performance-linked
incentive. Performance Management being the HR function, payroll management in a
performance-oriented reward system has become HR function.
Accounts department mainly performs a control function and is therefore made as
bottleneck. A bottleneck approach is not the right approach when you need to reward
people's performance in a dynamic business environment. So, the payroll function has been
transferred to HR to make it stay nearer to the people of the organization so as to respond
quickly to the employees' queries and performance. Of course, Accounts will ultimately
monitor the expenses and give their advice regarding any lapse in controls through audit
and other tools.Beside this H.R. have certain responsibilities as an Pay roll administration. such as:-
a) HR administration - setup customer employees' profile, verification of data and
ensure up-dated information on employees records
b) Attendance verification and seeking approval
c) Leave management
d) Payroll processing, verification, management and reporting
e) Perform statutory administration, contribution, reporting and others
f) Perform customer liaison, project implementation and setup
g) Handling customer inquiry, customer employees' registration and others and take
immediate action to rectify the complaints.

The project aims at the study of the Pay Roll Management System and it effectiveness in the
organization. Pay Roll System is the most indispensable tool for the management of an
organization as it credibility, accountability and proper functioning influence the working of
Employee as well as the productivity of an organization. There has been tremendous growth in
the number and size of multinational companies today, leading to significant challenges in the
areas of human resources and payroll system

1.3 RESEARCH METHODOLGOY
a) RESEARCH DESIGN:
A research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and analysis of data in a
manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedure. The
most significant decision is the choice of research approach, because it determines how the
information will be obtained. The choice of the research approach depends on the nature of the
research that one wants to do.
The research design adopted for this study is Exploratory Research. Exploratory research focuses
on collecting data using an unstructured format or informal procedures to capture data and to
interpret them. It is often used to classify the problems or opportunities and it is not intended to
provide conclusive information from which a particular course of action can be determined.
b) SAMPLING TECHNIQUE:
The next step in research study after collecting data is the sampling process. When a decision is
made to use the sample, a number of factors must be taken into consideration. The various steps
involved in the sampling process are:
Identifying target population
Determining sample frame
Selecting sampling procedure
Determining sampling size
Execute sampling
Obtaining information from respondent
10
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
11/77
Generate information for decision making
The target population in this study was the ground staff of Indigo Airline belonging to different
department. The sampling technique had to be selected. There are two types of samplingtechniques:-
Probability sampling
Non-probability sampling
For the purpose of our study among the probability sampling, the sampling used in this study was
stratified sampling.
c) STRATIFIED SAMPLING
If the population from which a sample is to be drawn does not constitute a homogeneous group,
then stratified technique is applied so as to obtain a reprehensive sample. In this technique, the
population is stratified into number of non-overlapping sub populations or strata and sample
items are selected from each stratum. If the items selected from each stratum is based on simple
random sampling, the entire procedure, first stratification and then simple random sampling is
known as stratified sampling. The stratified sampling results in a more reliable and detailed
information. The researcher uses simple random sampling for selection of items from each
stratum.
d) SAMPLE SIZE
The population covered for the present study consisted of employee belonging to supervisory and
the level above. For the purpose of this study, survey covered the employee ofINDIGO LTD.
falling under supervisor and the level above. The study covered a sample of 50 employees.
e) DATA COLLECTION APPROACH
11
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
12/77
There are several ways of colleting the appropriate data. While deciding about the method of
data collection to be used for the study, the researcher should keep in mind, that there are 2 types
of data.
1. Primary data
2. Secondary data
Primary data are those which are collected a fresh and for the first time and thus happen to be
original in character. Primary data can be collected either through experiment or through survey.
Secondary data are those which are collected from the published article, books, journaletc.
Primary data can be collected either through experiment or through survey.
The secondary data on the other hand are those which have already been collected by someone
else and which have already been passed through the statistical process. In this study, the data
was collected from the primary source through interview schedule.
f) STATISTICAL TECHNIQUE
This phase consists of the data analysis of the data collected based on the stratified simple
random probabilistic sampling technique. The data collected were analyzed using the percentage
analysis which involve the number of responses of each category is summarized to percentage
format and bar chart used to critically analyze the data and further data interpretation was done.

Many companies decide to outsource payroll administration to other companies. Payroll
administration companies handle most, if not all, payroll-related tasks for the companies they
serve. Some payroll administration companies also provide management and human resource
assistance as well. Many payroll administration companies tailor their services to meet the
needs of organizations of all sizes and types. Some even offer on-site help and payroll
consultations as well.

Payroll is defined as a method of administrating employees salaries in the organizations. The
process consists of calculation of salaries and tax deductions of the employees,
administrating the retirement benefits and disbursements of salaries to employees. It can alsobe called as an accounts activity which undertakes the salary administration of employees in
the organization.
Payroll management system encompasses all the tasks involved in paying an organizations
employees. It typically involves keeping track of hours worked and ensuring that employees
receive the appropriate amount of pay. It also includes calculating taxes and social security,
as well as ensuring that they are properly withheld and processed. Depending on the
company in question, a full range of other deductions may be calculated, withheld, and
processed as part of payroll administration. Additionally, the processing of contractor
payments may fall under the umbrella of payroll administration.
The specific tasks involved in payroll administration tend to vary according to the needs of
each unique company or organization. For example, some companies have workers that
receive commissions in addition to salaries. In these companies, including commissions in
employee salaries is a part of payroll administration. For some companies, it also involves
assigning exempt or non-exempt status to workers, adding bonuses into paychecks,
calculating overtime payments, and adhering to applicable employment laws.
Handling payroll-related problems are part of payroll administration as well. If an employee
is paid an incorrect amount or a direct deposit fails to go through, both things are payroll
administration issues. Likewise tax filing and deduction errors are payroll administration
matters as well.
Payroll administration can be very simple, involving the payment of just a handful of
employees, or very complicated, involving payroll for thousands of employees and
contractors. In some, very small companies, payroll may be handled by the owner of the

company or an employee. However, other companies may have many employees to pay and
keep track of necessitating a well planned, efficient payroll administration system.
Some companies choose to handle payroll administration in-house, often creating a separate
department just for the handling of payroll. Often, such organizations purchase software to
streamline payroll-related tasks. Some companies even have special software designed for
them, creating a payroll system that is tailored to their unique requirements.
Administrating the employees salaries is not an easy task, the HR and accounts department
work together to calculate and disburse the salary to the employees. Thus, payroll
management can be further subdivided into two sub processes, i.e. Payroll accounting and
payroll administration. Payroll refers to the administration of employees' salaries, wages,
bonuses, net pay, and deductions. It consist of the employee ID, employee name, date of
joining, daily attendance record, basic salary, allowances, overtime pay, bonus,
commissions, incentives, pay for holidays, vacations and sickness, value of meals and
lodging etc. There are some deductions such as PF, taxes, loan installments or advances
taken by employee.

4.6 NEED FOR PAY ROLL SOFTWARE SYSTEM
The study specifically seeks to answer the following problems in manual payroll process:
1. Speed in processing payroll tends to be slow.
2. Prone to mathematical errors that could consume much time than it should and could
cause financial or legal trouble.
3. Tallying of time cards is done manually.
4. Time consuming in double checking the consistency of all the reports.
5. Difficult and time consuming in keeping up-to-date in taxes and other deductions.
6. Storage of files is susceptible to be damaged as well as lost of data.
4.7 Significance of study .
39
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
40/77
1. Speed in processing payroll will have a faster performance by means of decreasing
the manual input areas.
2. Mathematical errors will be prevented by automatic computations that the proposed
system will provide and you may not have to worry about having financial or legal
trouble.
3. Tallying of time cards will be done automatically by including a computerized
employee log-in system in the proposed system which will be responsible in
computing the time the employee worked.
4. The proposed system will record all data in all reports at the same time so you can
make sure they are consistent and it also saves time.
5. Employers will never have to spend much time in keeping up to date with taxes
and deductions because the system will be designed updated to such deductions.
7. Storage of files will be safe and secured with username and passwords and can
easily be accessed.
4.8 HR/Payroll Solution: Integrated vs. Interfaced
40
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
41/77
When looking for an HR system, some organizations consider a combined HR/Payroll
solution.This may come from one vendor (integrated or interfaced), or it may come from two
vendors (interfaced). What's the difference between an "interfaced" and an "integrated"
solution? The following is a discussion on the two options, and why the interfaced option
may be the solution that's best for HR.
In an integrated database, HR and payroll share all current employee information, working
from one and the same database. The figure below shows this situation.
Figure 1. Integrated Database: HR and Payroll share the same database
The other option is separate databases for HR and Payroll. An interface is then needed to add
or update data from one database to the other. In the diagram below, some data can move
from HR to payroll while other data moves from payroll to HR. The interface can be
automatic and set to update the databases every night or manual where HR clicks a button to
update when needed.
41
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
42/77
Figure 2. Interfaced Solution: Payroll and HR exchange data
While an integrated system has the benefit of having current data for both HR and Payroll, an
interfaced HR/Payroll system has its own advantages.
4.9 Advantages of an interfaced solution between HR and Payroll:
1. An interfaced solution meets the specific needs of the HR department.
Payroll and HR are separate functions that have different needs, and those needs,
especially on the HR side, can evolve quickly. An integrated HR/payroll system may not
be easily adjusted to meet the evolving needs because changes on the HR side may
adversely affect the payroll side. Should this situation arise with an interfaced solution, the
HR database can be adjusted easily without affecting the Payroll database.
42
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
43/77
This would not be easy to do if both HR and Payroll are on one integrated database. It is
likely that HRs needs will be unmet thereby relegating HR staff back to using
spreadsheets for their data analysis needs.
An example of this is HRs usual practice of tracking employee benefit plan enrollment,
coverage level and benefit plan costs, while Payroll is interested in tracking deduction
codes and employee deduction amounts. Payroll may want to roll multiple benefit plans
into a single deduction code, which may conflict with the detailed benefits enrollment data
that HR needs.
Another example is organizational analysis. Payroll and Finance may want to create an
organizational and departmental structure that optimizes financial reporting. HR, on the
other hand, may want a database supporting an organizational structure that can analyze
and generate reports based on position type, training needs, or health/safety/environmental
issues.
2. An interfaced solution enables HR projects to move forward independently.
HR projects and Payroll projects may compete for the same resources. For example, if HR
is introducing a new performance review process and Payroll is changing the quarterly
accruals, the same staff may be needed to support both projects. And Payroll will almost
always prevail because of urgency of their issues. With an interfaced solution, different
personnel support HR and Payroll systems, so there is no competition for resources.
3. An interfaced solution provides the best of breed for HR and Payroll
43
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
44/77
If a payroll company is offering an integrated HR solution, the HR piece may have limited
features. Does it have recruiting, applicant tracking, and hiring/onboarding functions? Does
it track training, licensing and certifications? Does it alert you to when these dates are
about to expire? It is important that the HR staff conduct a detailed analysis of the
integrated solutions HR features to make sure HRs needs are sufficiently met.
4. An interfaced solution ensures a support staff that knows their areas of expertise.
If a payroll company is offering an integrated HR solution, the Payroll support staff may be
less familiar with HR-related issues and the HR features of its software. When you call to
describe your HR-related question, you may not get knowledgeable HR support staff to
help you resolve your HR issue. Furthermore, the Payroll support staff may not be current
on HR regulatory changes.
5. An interfaced solution reduces your dependency on your payroll vendor or payroll serviceprovider.
If for some reason you are unhappy with your payroll vendor or the service that is
provided, you have the option to change your payroll company without disrupting your
HRIS system and vice versa.
Note that some systems offered by a single vendor claim to be integrated, but in reality
they are two systems that require data updates from one system to the other.
When evaluating interfaced HR/Payroll, here are some questions to ask:
44
7/31/2019 52114271 Payroll Managment
45/77
1. How often can the interface be run?
2. Which fields can be included in the interface?
3. How many steps are needed to run the interface?
4.10 The problem and review of related literature
As computer technology changes at such fast phase, many businesses sectors try to cope up
by upgrading computer system constantly in order to stay competitive. The multifunction
ability of technology for its advance system is also an important factor for a company to use
software. It makes efficient use of the advance technology and has ambition to discover
more.
The program also allows the monthly payroll schedule to be calculated
accurately. Just by having all employees info like name, working hours, wages etc to enter
in the database. Therefore, payroll can be done with the guide of the program. The system is
good in for its specialty in the fields of accounting. It is easy to use, effective and efficient in
organizing and calculating the payroll. There are several suggestion form the Employee of an
organization regarding pay roll system implemented in an organization such as
a) The program should accepts employee hours worked.
b) The program should prepare pay cheques
c) The program should maintain data on a sequential payroll file
d) Non-statutory deductions such as union dues and pension plans to be made.

LIMITATION:-
a) The respondents attitude did not allow me to get their true feelings.
b) Most of the respondents were hesitant to give their names and that create problem
while preparing database of the respondents.
c) Employees are very limited and duration for the project is also limited which further
add problem in collecting the relevant data related to the pay roll system of an Indigo

information as there were some hidden pay roll systems which can only
be access by top management personnel in an organization.
e) Many employees replied guarded answers to some crucial question and
because of this clear opinion of the employees to the questionnaire
provided to them were difficult.
f) Response could not be collected from the total sample selected as some
of the employees did not respond to the particular question due to their
personal reason which act as a constrain while preparing the project on
