What the payroll system covers

Philippine payroll rules, handled in the same system as attendance and accounting.

Payroll Periods

Semi-monthly, monthly or weekly cut-offs per company or branch.

SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG

Employee and employer shares from current contribution tables.

BIR withholding tax

Monthly withholding on compensation, 1601-C totals, year-end 2316 data.

Overtime, night differential, holidays

Rates applied from approved requests and the holiday calendar.

Late and undertime

Computed per shift from the attendance system.

Loans and custom deductions

SSS and Pag-IBIG loans, cash advances, company loans, uniforms.

13th month and incentives

Accrued per period; sales incentives pulled from actual transactions.

Payslips and bank file

PDF payslips in Employee Self-Service, salary file for any Philippine bank (just name your bank), accounting entry.

Why not a standalone payroll app?

Payroll is only as accurate as the attendance behind it.

A separate payroll system still needs attendance exported, OT approved somewhere else and the journal entry encoded by hand. In SIMSO the same employee record carries the shift, the biometric log, the approved OT, the loan balance and the bank account, so payroll is a review step, not a re-encoding step.

Payroll system FAQ

Questions Philippine employers ask

These answers are also published as FAQ structured data so they can appear directly in search results.

Does SIMSO have a payroll system?

Yes. The SIMSO Payroll Engine is part of the HR Management module and computes Philippine payroll with SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG and BIR withholding tax from your attendance and approved requests.

Is it a standalone payroll software or part of the ERP?

It is part of the SIMSO ERP, so attendance, leave, loans, incentives and the accounting entry are already connected. It is a standard module in both Basic and Pro.

Does it compute SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG and withholding tax automatically?

Yes. Contribution tables and tax brackets are maintained in the system and applied per employee each period. Employer shares are tracked separately for remittance reports.

Can employees see their payslips?

Yes. Payslips are published to the Employee Self-Service portal and the SIMSO mobile app for Android and iOS, where staff also file OT and leave requests and view their attendance log.

Can it generate a bank file for payroll crediting?

Yes. Approved payroll exports the upload file your bank needs for salary crediting, whichever Philippine bank you use. Just tell SIMSO which bank during setup and the format is configured for you.

How much does the SIMSO payroll system cost?

Payroll comes with every SIMSO subscription: Basic at ₱4,995 per month (5 seats, up to 3 branches) or Pro at ₱19,995 per month (10 seats, up to 10 branches), VAT-exclusive, no launch fee. Data migration is a separate service from ₱19,995. New customers get a one-month free demo.
