πŸ‡ΏπŸ‡¦ Built for South African Accounting Practices

Payroll for every client, without living in spreadsheets

Chasing client WhatsApps for hours and leave, opening a different spreadsheet for every client, retyping the same overtime figures twice β€” that's the actual job today. It shouldn't be.

Why it fits

One login, not a folder per client

Switch between client companies from a single account instead of separate logins, separate spreadsheets, and separate exports for every business you manage.

Employee count pooled across your whole book

Growing your client list shouldn't mean juggling more separate subscriptions or systems. One pooled quota covers every client under your practice.

Chasing a client's leave and hours by WhatsApp, every single month

Each client's own employees submit and approve their own leave and timesheets upstream β€” you review exceptions when payroll runs, not raw, unverified data.

EMP201, EMP501 and IRP5 without a separate reconciliation exercise

These generate from the exact same payroll data you already processed β€” not a second, manual exercise that has to be reconciled back against it after the fact.

Payroll journals already inside the books you're preparing

No exporting payroll figures from one system to re-enter into the client's accounting β€” it's the same platform.

End-to-end payroll

Everything payroll needs to actually reconcile

Not just a PAYE calculator β€” the full chain from timesheet to SARS submission.

Onboarding a new hire shouldn't mean five different forms

Capture personal details, banking, tax numbers and employment terms once. Migrating from Excel or another system? Bulk import your whole employee list instead of retyping it.

"What does this employee actually cost me?"

A flat salary field hides the real answer. Build a proper Cost-to-Company package β€” basic salary, allowances, employer contributions β€” so the number you budget against is the number it actually costs.

Ditch the leave spreadsheet

Cross-referencing emails every Monday to check who's off and whether the balance is even right, isn't sustainable past a handful of employees. Employees request, managers approve, balances update themselves.

"Cannot find the right solution" for timesheets

That's a real, common complaint β€” generic timesheet apps ignore payroll entirely. Ours doesn't: approved hours (weekly, fortnightly, or monthly) feed straight into the pay run, no re-collecting them from a spreadsheet or WhatsApp.

"Can you resend my payslip?" β€” stop being the bottleneck

Employees log into their own portal to download payslips and IRP5 certificates, check leave balances, and submit requests directly β€” without emailing you for a copy every time.

The payslip says one thing, SARS records say another

That mismatch is where trust breaks down. EMP201 due dates are calculated correctly against weekends and public holidays, and IRP5/EMP501 are built from the same real SARS source-code data as the payslip β€” not a separate spreadsheet that quietly drifts out of sync.

Stop re-typing payroll into your accounting system

Payroll journals post directly into ZinithX Accounting the moment a run is approved. No exporting a CSV from one system and re-entering it into another.

One bank file, not one payment at a time

Once payroll is approved, generate a single EFT batch ready for your bank β€” net pay to every employee, in one file.

Managing payroll for 12 clients shouldn't mean 12 logins

One login, every client. Employee count pooled across your whole book, so growing your client list doesn't mean juggling more separate accounts.
