When was the last time your payroll stood still?
Change is the only constant in payroll, which means that traditional batch processing systems with people in the middle are giving way to real-time, self-service platforms that keep pace with the most complex situations. Affinity’s payroll will grow with your business and handle the most diverse scenarios.
With payroll, there’s no room for error.
Affinity puts you in control with over 400 employee data points in a single database to easily handle calculations for employees with multiple roles, awards and entitlements. You can tailor the system to your needs — rename fields, add unique data points and apply custom validation. Whether it’s for reporting, calculations or self-service, everything is accessible through a single, intuitive menu with smart filtering and search options.
Payroll is fluid and dynamic. Affinity eliminates payroll errors by automating pay rate changes, entitlements and grade adjustments for promotions, tenure or job changes. Based on an event-driven architecture, the system knows exactly when to apply changes for any past or future dates and continuously scans for mid-period or historical changes, automatically calculating adjustments. You can then review, tweak and approve, with no manual checks required.
Payroll doesn’t wait — and neither should you. Affinity’s one-step processing calculates, validates and finalises payroll in a single automated workflow — without requiring multiple manual steps or interventions. It delivers 100% system availability — even during processing — with no lockouts or downtime. Multiple users can process payroll simultaneously or start one payroll while finishing another. Changes are automatically flagged and queued for the next cycle or handled as adjustments.
“It used to take weeks and weeks for one FTE to go through that information. Having Affinity has enabled us to reduce the time it takes and the potential for human error.”
