Payroll Report

A Payroll Report in Zoho Payroll is a structured data output covering employee salary details, statutory deductions, and compliance figures for a specific pay period or financial year.

A Payroll Report in Zoho Payroll is a structured report that presents detailed payroll data for analysis, compliance, and decision-making. Zoho Payroll offers a range of reports: payroll summary, employee salary register, EPF report, ESI report, PT report, TDS computation, leave and LOP report, and year-to-date summaries. Reports can be filtered by pay period, department, employee, and exported in PDF or Excel format.

Key Payroll Reports in Zoho Payroll

Essential reports include: Salary Register (all employees’ earnings, deductions, and net pay for a period), EPF Report (UAN-wise contribution summary for ECR), ESI Report (insurance number-wise ESI contribution for challan), PT Report (state-wise PT collection), TDS Computation Report (employee-wise TDS for the year), and Leave and LOP Report (attendance-linked adjustments). Each report has a dedicated view in the Reports module.

Using Reports for Statutory Compliance

Statutory compliance requires accurate data for EPFO, ESIC, state PT authorities, and the Income Tax Department. Zoho Payroll’s statutory reports are designed to map directly to the data required for ECR, ESIC challan, PT returns, and Form 24Q. Running these reports after each pay run and before submission deadlines ensures no discrepancies.

Custom and Scheduled Reports

Zoho Payroll allows report customisation: selecting specific columns, applying filters, and grouping by department or location. Reports can be scheduled for automatic email delivery to designated recipients (Finance Head, HR Manager, CFO) at defined intervals, ensuring stakeholders always have current payroll data without logging into the system.

Example: After the March pay run (financial year end), the payroll manager runs four reports: Annual Salary Register (for audit), EPF Report (for final ECR), TDS Computation (for Form 16 verification), and Payroll Summary (for CFO). All four are exported to Excel and shared with the respective teams within 30 minutes of pay run finalisation.
