The Payroll module addresses all US payroll requirements as well as international payroll issues.
For example, both US and Canadian payroll can be managed in the same database.
StarGarden is capable of handling the most complex payroll requirements...most without customization.
Along with processing standard payroll, the system processes payables, retro pays, year end tax documents and records of employment.
Processing payroll in a complex organization means handling unlimited earnings types, multiple employee groups across unions, locals, and management, CBA-driven deductions and benefits, off-cycle pays, retro pay, and year-end processing.
SG 6 gives HR and Payroll teams a fully integrated, table-driven payroll system that handles the most complex payroll scenarios without manual exceptions or customization, with real-time visibility, detailed audit trails, and no per-pay or per-transaction costs.
Organizations with unionized workforces, multiple collective agreements, and complex pay rules typically get more value from in-house payroll software than from outsourced payroll services. SG6 gives your Payroll team full control over processing schedules, retro calculations, off-cycle pays, and year-end without service requests or lead times. Unlike outsourced payroll services, there are no per-pay or per-transaction costs as your organization grows or your pay rules change.
Payroll Processing includes capabilities to support complex payroll management, multi-group earnings and deductions, retro pay, year-end processing, direct deposit, and full audit reporting across complex, multi-union workforce environments.
Define unlimited user-defined earning codes, deduction codes, and summarization classes for earnings, benefits, and payroll types. Manage multiple payroll frequencies including weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly, monthly, and quarterly. Deductions and benefits can be defined by any employee grouping and overridden individually where needed.
Run payroll for an unlimited number of employee groups including unions, locals, and non-bargaining or management groups in the same system. Handle multiple rates per employee per pay period, complex employee schedules, and standard hours adjusted over actual working schedules, all within the same integrated payroll environment.
Process retro pay, bonuses, and quick pays without manual workarounds. Off-cycle payrolls for layoffs, terminations, and vacation pays are fully supported. One-time adjustments for earnings or deductions can be applied where needed, and payroll can be rerun as many times as required without additional cost.
Automatic year-end processing handles T4s and year-end tax documents directly from your live payroll data. Support for multiple year-ends for vacation and payroll means different employee groups can operate on different cycles within the same system. Records of Employment are produced as part of standard payroll processing.
All detailed transactions are stored online for as long as required. Full summary history is available life-to-date, year-to-date, quarter-to-date, month-to-date, and by pay period for all transactions. Validation reporting catches standard errors including missing or excess time before payroll is finalized.
Multiple direct deposits per employee are supported. Payroll registers, bank reconciliation management, cheque replacements and reversals, and GL (General Ledger) distribution and interface are all handled within SG6. Reports and registers run directly from live payroll data without manual compilation.
SG6 gives HR and Payroll teams a structured, auditable approach to payroll, from time and earnings input through to final processing, reporting, and year-end.
Define earning codes, deduction codes, benefit structures, and payroll types for each employee group. Configure payroll frequencies, absence codes, and default time generation rules against predefined schedules. All payroll parameters are table-driven with no custom development required.
Generate automatic time against predefined schedules and validate entries before processing. Validation reports surface missing or excess time, errors, and exceptions so Payroll teams can correct issues before finalizing. Off-cycle pays, retro calculations, and special pays are handled within the same process.
Produce payroll registers, direct deposit files, GL distributions, and bank reconciliation reports from live payroll data. Year-end processing generates T4s and tax documents automatically. All detailed transactions are retained online for as long as required, supporting audits and historical reporting.
Payroll Processing connects directly to the modules, processes, and workflows across SG6, keeping payroll data aligned with HR records, time and attendance, benefits, and compensation.
Payroll Processing connects to Employee Demographics, Compensation, Benefits Management, and Accruals and Balances within Core HR. Pay structures connect to the position record, benefit deductions flow from Benefits Management, and balance accruals update with each pay run without manual reconciliation.
Payroll Processing sits at the centre of the Payroll module alongside Scheduling and Time and Attendance. Approved time from Time and Attendance integrates directly to payroll, schedule data generates default time automatically, and all payroll changes are reflected across the connected modules without duplicate entry.
SG6's embedded workflow toolset routes payroll approvals, off-cycle pay requests, and adjustment authorizations through defined channels. Configurable approval routings ensure payroll changes reach the right people before processing, keeping payroll administration controlled and auditable.
