What does payroll software do?

Automates monthly salary calculations, SGK declarations and digital payslip generation — eliminating the risk of manual errors.

Who uses it?

HR and accounting teams, finance managers, and business owners use it to speed up payroll processes.

What to look for?

Turkey compliance (SGK, income tax, minimum wage), e-payslip support, KVKK-compliant archiving, and ease of use are the priorities.

CADRO's Payroll Module

CADRO's payroll module is a cloud-based payroll management system that is fully compliant with Turkish regulations and works in sync with HR data.

Net/Gross Salary Calculation

SGK worker share, income tax, and stamp duty are calculated automatically. Calculate from gross to net or net to gross.

SGK Premium Reporting

Monthly SGK premium declaration data is compiled automatically; reporting time is reduced via accounting integration.

Digital Payslip Generation

A digital payslip is created for each employee, delivered by email, and archived in a KVKK-compliant manner.

Minimum Wage Updates

Each period's minimum wage and SGK ceiling/floor changes are automatically reflected in the system.

Severance Pay Calculation

Severance pay is automatically calculated considering years of service, gross salary and the legal ceiling.

Multiple Pay Components

Travel, meal, bonus, commission, and advance payments are defined as payroll items and included in calculations.

Payroll Software vs Excel

Many companies start managing payroll in Excel. But as headcount grows, regulations change more frequently, and audit risks increase, Excel's limitations become apparent.

Excel Payroll

Manual formulas carry error risk. Minimum wage and SGK changes must be updated manually. No KVKK-compliant archiving. No integration with accounting data.

Payroll Software

Calculations are automatic and legal changes are reflected in the system. E-payslips are stored KVKK-compliantly. Accounting and HR data flows are integrated.

Time & Cost Advantage

Monthly payroll preparation time reduces by 60–70% on average. Error correction and recalculation costs decrease. The HR team can allocate time to more strategic work.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does payroll software differ from accounting software?

Does CADRO's payroll module integrate with existing accounting software?

CADRO supports data transfer integration with Logo, Mikro, and other common accounting systems. Contact the support team for detailed information.

Is the system automatically updated when the minimum wage changes?

Yes. In CADRO, minimum wage and SGK ceiling/floor values are updated in the system during update periods. No manual intervention is required.
