Payroll is an owner-only area that turns completed shifts into pay for each worker over a period.
Run a pay run
- 1Open Payroll and create a pay run for the period (weekly, fortnightly or monthly).
- 2StaffHawk builds a payslipper worker from their completed shifts — hours × rate — so you don't add them up by hand.
- 3Review each payslip and adjust anything that needs it.
- 4Finalise the pay run, then send the payslips to your workers.
Xero
If you use Xero, you can connect it from Integrations and push payroll across, so you're not entering the same numbers twice.
