Payslips

Record Every Payslip as Coded Lines, Checked Against Its Own Totals

Included in Payroll €19.99/month

Your accountant works out the figures. Enlivy is where they land: every amount on its own coded line, in the vocabulary your country actually uses, checked against the payslip's own totals and tied to the employment, the contract and the payment it belongs to.

A payslip's totals and its coded lines for hours, days and earnings; amounts covered

EVERY FIGURE STATES ITSELF

A Payslip That Carries Its Own Numbers

No template to decode. No blob to interpret. Just figures, in named columns.

A payslip holds its own totals in their own fields: gross, employee contributions, tax relief, the taxable amount, tax, post-tax deductions, what was actually paid, and what the employment cost the employer.

Underneath, every one of those totals is built from lines you can read one at a time.

  • Nothing is hidden in a template:

    the figures are stored as figures, so a payslip from three years ago still reads the same way as one from this month.

  • Positive amounts, typed direction:

    a line's class says which way the money flows, so a deduction can never be entered as an earning by accident.

  • Gross and net, side by side

    Both totals are held on the payslip itself, alongside the taxable amount they were worked out from.

  • Employee and employer split

    What the person contributed and what the employer contributed are separate totals, never merged into one number.

  • Tax relief in its own column

    Personal allowances and other relief sit apart from the tax itself, so the calculation stays readable.

  • Paid, and what is left

    The amount that actually reached the bank is its own field, after post-tax deductions such as advances or garnishments.

  • Its own period

    Every payslip states the period it covers, so it files itself into the right month even when it is issued late at night.

  • Encrypted identity

    The national identification number is held encrypted on the payslip and its employment, never in plain text.

Payroll Records Should Not Live in a Spreadsheet

The accountant does the maths. The problem is everything that happens to the result afterwards.

  • The figures arrive as a PDF and stop there

    Without Enlivy: Your accountant sends a statement every month. It gets filed in a folder, or retyped into a spreadsheet, and nothing else in the business can read it.

    With Enlivy: The same figures land as structured lines, so they can be totalled, searched, reported on and connected to the payment that settled them.

  • Every country calls things something different

    Without Enlivy: A generic payroll form makes you map CAS onto "social contribution 1" and hope everyone remembers what that meant next year.

    With Enlivy: Each jurisdiction's own wage types are built in, under the names payroll actually uses there, resolved from the employment rather than your company address.

  • One transposed digit and nothing balances

    Without Enlivy: A payslip that does not reconcile can sit unnoticed for months, until someone reconciles the year and has to work backwards through twelve of them.

    With Enlivy: The chain is checked on every save and a mismatch is reported immediately, with the expected figure beside the entered one.

  • Records scattered across systems

    Without Enlivy: Payslips in one tool, contracts in another, bank transactions in a third. Answering a simple question means opening three systems.

    With Enlivy: Link a payslip to its employment and it sits in one chain with the contract, the working-time record and the payment.

SEVEN CLASSES, ONE VOCABULARY

Every Line Knows What Kind of Line It Is

Payroll everywhere is built from the same seven kinds of line. Enlivy names them, so a figure can be totalled, printed and reported without anyone guessing what it was.

  • Informational Counted, not paid. The hours and days behind the money.
    • Norm hours and hours actually worked
    • Two bands of overtime, night hours, weekend hours
    • Leave, sick, unpaid and unexcused days
  • Earnings Everything that adds to the gross.
    • Base salary and earned salary
    • Bonuses, commission, overtime and shift premiums
    • Leave pay, sick pay, meal vouchers, expense reimbursement
  • Employee contributions What the person pays into the state systems.
    • Social security, health insurance, pension
    • Unemployment insurance
  • Tax relief What reduces the taxable amount before tax is applied.
    • Personal allowance
    • Any other relief your jurisdiction grants
  • Tax Income tax, at every level that levies it.
    • Income tax
    • State and local income tax where they apply
  • Post-tax deductions Taken from net pay, after everything else.
    • Advances and loan repayments
    • Garnishments and union dues
  • Employer contributions What the employment costs on top of the gross.
    • Employer social security, health and pension
    • Employer unemployment insurance

Every class also carries an other line that keeps your accountant’s own wording, so no figure is ever forced under the wrong heading.

YOUR COUNTRY'S OWN WORDS

CAS and CASS in Romania. National Insurance in the UK.

The line list is not a generic form. It is your jurisdiction's own payroll vocabulary.

Alongside the universal classes, each country pack carries the wage types that country actually uses, named the way payroll names them there.

Enlivy works out which list applies from the employment itself, not from where your company is registered, so a Romanian company with a remote employee abroad gets the right list for that person.

  • A wrong code is refused, not stored:

    a code outside the universal set and your jurisdiction's own catalogue is rejected, so a Romanian contribution can never land on a British payslip.

  • The document speaks the record's language:

    a payslip prints in the language its jurisdiction keeps records in, not the language whoever opened it happens to read.

  • Romania

    CAS, CASS, CAM and deducerea personală, under their own names.

  • United Kingdom

    National Insurance, student loan repayments, statutory sick pay.

  • United States

    Federal income tax, Medicare, 401(k) contributions.

  • Germany

    Solidaritätszuschlag, Kirchensteuer, Pflegeversicherung.

  • Measured in real units

    Hours and days are counted in the same UN/ECE units your invoices bill in, not in free text.

  • Ask before you author

    The app lists exactly which lines an employment is allowed to carry before anyone starts typing.

Keep Every Payslip as Figures, Not Files

Every amount sits on its own coded line, checked against the payslip's own totals, and each slip can be linked to the bank transaction that paid it.

CHECKED, NOT BLOCKED

The Arithmetic Is Checked Every Time You Save

Gross, minus employee contributions, minus tax, minus post-tax deductions, should equal what was paid.

Enlivy runs that chain on every save. When it does not close, the app says so straight away, because a real payslip reconciles exactly and a mismatch is almost always a typo.

It never refuses the payslip: your accountant's document is the authority, and storing it is never blocked.

  • A warning, never a wall:

    you are told what the figures imply and what was entered, and you decide. Nothing is silently corrected.

  • Five statuses, one trail:

    pending, approval required, approved, rejected and paid, with rejected and paid closing the books on that slip.

  • Approve, then pay

    Move a payslip through approval before it is marked paid, with the payment method on record.

  • Tied to the payment

    Connect the payslip to the bank transaction that settled it, so you can see who was paid and when.

  • Readable on screen

    Open a payslip to see its totals and every line, grouped by kind, without opening a file.

  • A second language on request

    Through the API, download a second copy in another language when someone needs one, without changing the record.

  • Survives a deleted contract

    Removing a contract releases the link instead of taking the payslip with it. The record stays.

  • Kept, never filed

    Enlivy produces the document and retains the record. Filing stays with the people who file.

How a Payslip Gets Made

From the employment record to a payslip your accountant would recognize.

You are not doing the payroll here. You are recording its result in a shape that still makes sense years later, and the app checks your typing on the way in.

  1. Start From the Employment

    Link each payslip to an employment: the person, their contract, their jurisdiction and their pay period. Create the employment once and every later payslip has a home.

  2. Enter the Lines

    Take your accountant’s figures and enter them as lines. Enlivy offers the codes that employment is allowed to carry, in your country’s own vocabulary.

    A payslip's lines by kind: informational, earning, employee contribution, tax relief

  3. Let It Check Itself

    On save, the totals are recomputed and the chain is verified. If something does not close, you are told exactly which figure disagrees.

    A payslip's totals: what the lines compute beside what was entered

  4. Approve and Pay

    Move it through approval and connect the bank transaction that settled it.

Everything a Payslip Record Should Do

Your accountant works out the figures. What happens to them afterwards is the part that usually goes wrong, and the part Enlivy is built for.

  • Enter a payslip in your country's own codes

    The app offers exactly the lines that employment is allowed to carry, so a wrong code is refused rather than quietly stored.

  • Catch a typo before it is filed away

    The totals chain is recomputed on every save and you are told which figure disagrees. A warning, never a wall.

  • Connect the slip to the payment

    Link a payslip to the bank transaction that settled it, so you can see who was paid and when.

  • Approve a payslip before it is paid

    Move it through approval before it is marked paid, with the payment method on record.

Proposals, contracts, invoices and payments

Keep Every Payslip as Figures, Not Files

Every amount sits on its own coded line, checked against the payslip's own totals, and each slip can be linked to the bank transaction that paid it.

API Reference

Payslip Management from the API

Push the payslips your accountant produces straight into the record: typed totals, coded lines, and the employment each one belongs to, without anybody retyping a figure.

A line sends its code and its amount. The class it belongs to is derived from that code, never supplied, and a code your jurisdiction does not know is refused with a 422 rather than stored under the wrong heading.

Query payslips with pagination and navigation metadata, and expand their lines. Each slip carries its own typed totals: gross, employee contributions, tax relief, the taxable amount, tax, post-tax deductions, net pay, and the employer cost.
