Key features

Attaché Payroll is developed in Australia and New Zealand, so you can be confident that it keeps up to date with appropriate legislative changes. Attaché Software has over twenty years' experience making payroll solutions for small to medium businesses.

No employee limit
The typical business using Attaché Payroll has between 10 and 500 employees (although there is no upper limit), with many larger users exceeding 1000 employees. To handle such diverse needs, Attaché Payroll is designed around one core module with a choice of options. This means you can tailor the system to suit your exact needs. You pay for the number of users, not the number of employees.

Payslip delivery
The Attaché Alex document delivery service lets you email or fax pay advices to employees. This is ideal for larger businesses and those with many casual or remote staff. To ensure confidentiality, each employee is given a personal "unlock code".

Easily modified template for each employee
Only details that change, such as overtime, need to be entered each pay run. You can also look up and/or copy any previous pay. A great time saver!

Customisable pay advices
Choose from several designs for pay advices, or customise them (for example by adding your company logo). You can control which design to use for a particular print run, group of employees, or even individual employee.

Pay points
A pay point on each employee's record directs pay advices to the employee's division, floor, building or branch. Pay point totals are also available.

Unlimited income, allowance and deduction choices
Attaché Payroll allows an unlimited number of income types to cater for various calculations and costing requirements (such as overtime, study leave and flexi time) and you can specify your own method of calculation.

Flexible pay rates and frequencies
You can enter a yearly, monthly, 4-weekly, bi-monthly, fortnightly, weekly or hourly pay rate for each employee, independently of their pay frequency. The calculated pay rate per hour can be printed on pay advices.

Flexible payment methods
Payment methods include bank (to one or more accounts), cheque, cash (with cash analysis) and cash plus bank.

Leave accruals facility
Attaché Payroll caters for sick, annual, long service, rostered days, study leave and leave loading, and they can be calculated by date, pay or hours worked. You can also define two extra types of leave.

Normal, award and special pay rates
A normal and award rate can be stored for each employee. If required, you can enter a special rate when entering a pay.

PAYG tax deductions
Attaché Payroll automatically calculates tax deductions for each pay, taking into account the length of the pay period. You can enter multiple periods to accurately calculate tax for annual leave paid in advance.

Automatic pay generation facility
For employees who receive the same pay each payday, Auto Pays automatically generate the pay.

Flexible time entry
Time sheet entry can be by hours, start/stop time or shifts, in decimals or minutes. You can enter pays as time sheets are received (such as daily) and then process them when the pay is due.

Superannuation
Attaché Payroll can automatically calculate superannuation and employee contributions, which can also be printed on pay advices. Calculations for juniors and casuals are based on a monthly threshold and/or minimum hours per week.

Time and Attendance, Time Billing and rostering systems
Attache's top-seller status encourages partnerships with a number of specialist time and attendance, time billing and rostering systems.

Attaché ODBC
Attaché ODBC allows you to link your Attaché Payroll data to other applications, such as Microsoft Excel® and Microsoft Word®, to create additional custom-made reports.
