Payroll that fits your organisation, not the other way around
Redian's Zoho Custom Payroll is a purpose-built payroll platform we engineer on top of Zoho Creator, tailored to the exact pay structures, deductions, statutory rules and reporting your organisation runs. Off-the-shelf payroll boxes you into someone else's schema; Zoho Custom Payroll gives you the flexibility of a bespoke build with the reliability, security and integration surface of the Zoho ecosystem you already own.
With 15+ years of digital transformation experience and Advanced Zoho Partner status, we deploy payroll systems that simplify payday, remove manual error, keep you compliant across jurisdictions, and integrate cleanly with Zoho CRM, Zoho Books and Zoho People — so employee data, cost accounting and HR records stay in sync without spreadsheets in between.
What we do
Zoho Custom Payroll build. We design payroll systems tailored to your pay structures, allowances, statutory deductions, benefits accruals and reporting requirements. Every calculation rule is transparent, auditable and configurable by your team.
Payroll processing automation. Automated tax calculations, statutory deductions, payslip generation, direct-deposit files and month-end journal postings. Fewer clicks, no rekeying, no reconciliation surprises.
Payroll software integration. We integrate Zoho Custom Payroll with Zoho CRM, Zoho Books, Zoho People and any third-party ERP, banking or HRIS system, so payroll is one node in a unified data flow — not a data island.
Scalable payroll solutions. The platform grows with your workforce. Add employees, entities, countries and pay grades without rebuilding the model. Cloud-native by design and built for multi-country rollouts.
Key features
- Highly customisable calculation engine — rule-based automation that handles your organisation's unique pay structures, allowances, deductions and grossing-up logic with no manual overrides.
- Automated tax compliance — jurisdiction-specific tax modules that adapt to evolving regulations, protecting you from penalties and reputational risk. PAYE, NHIF, NSSF, PF, ESI, GST and equivalents supported.
- Secure employee self-service portal — web and mobile access for employees to view payslips, download tax forms, update personal details and submit claims. Cuts HR admin load dramatically.
- Seamless Zoho ecosystem integration — native integration with Zoho CRM, Zoho Books, Zoho People and Zoho Analytics so payroll data flows into finance and HR without a middleware layer.
- Dynamic reporting and analytics — payroll expense analytics, labour cost breakdowns, headcount trends and statutory return generation, all available as dashboards and scheduled exports.
- Scalable cloud-based architecture — hosted on Zoho's enterprise-grade infrastructure with role-based access controls, encryption at rest and in transit, and audit trails on every payroll action.
Benefits of Zoho Custom Payroll with Redian
Simplify payday. From automated pay stub generation to compliance tracking, we make month-end payroll stress-free for organisations of every size, from 20-person startups to 5,000-strong enterprises.
Scale as you grow. Whether you are onboarding your first payroll cycle or restructuring pay grades across a multi-country footprint, the platform scales without rebuilding. Adding employees, entities or pay components is a config change, not a project.
Stay ahead of regulation. We monitor statutory updates across the jurisdictions our clients operate in and roll compliance changes into your Zoho Custom Payroll build as part of ongoing support — you do not chase every finance-act circular yourself.
Global reach, local nuance. With clients across India, Kenya, UAE, UK, USA, Canada, Australia and much of Sub-Saharan Africa, we bring cross-border payroll experience and know the regional statutory particulars that break naive implementations.

How the payroll cycle works
- Create pay run — the system picks up the current month's headcount, attendance, leave and variable pay inputs from Zoho People (or your HRIS).
- Compute payroll — calculation engine applies your salary components, statutory deductions and tax rules and produces a pre-approval preview for finance to review.
- Approve payroll — configurable multi-level approval workflow (HR head → finance → CFO) with full audit trail on every override.
- Initiate payments — bank-file export in the format your bank accepts (NEFT / IMPS / ACH / SEPA / PesaLink) or direct integration with Zoho Books for payment posting.
- Send pay stubs — payslips generated as PDFs with your branding, delivered to the employee self-service portal and emailed with password protection.
- Post to Zoho Books — payroll journal auto-posted to your general ledger, cost-centre-wise, ready for month-end close.
