Payroll processing is an imperative process in an organization; it involves many tasks to ensure accurate and timely payments of the workforces’ services, and to protect organization’s reputation through effective record-keeping compliance with the government authorities’ employment legislations. Despite its important function in the organization process, studies on payroll processing is quite limited, as compared to other transaction processing systems such as sales and purchase. This paper observes the trend of articles published on payroll system that has been indexed by the Google Scholar as at February 2018. This study aims to provide insights into the characteristics of the issues related to payroll system using a bibliometric analysis. Articles that matched with the keywords [allintitle: payroll system OR systems OR application OR applications OR software] in the Google Scholar has been obtained and analyzed. After conducted the cleaning process i.e. by completing the meta-data of the articles and removing some of the irrelevant and duplicate articles, 170 articles are available for further analysis. It is found that, the number of published payroll system articles are increasing in the past five years. Most of the articles has been published as journal articles, academic dissertations and conference papers. The output of this study can help researchers to understand the landscape of the global research and issues on payroll system and establish further research directions in this field.

Payroll taxes and payroll deductions became ubiquitous in the United States by the mid-1940s, crucial to the financing of the emerging “mixed” welfare state as well as World War II. While scholars have firmly established the importance of elements of the warfare/welfare state such as Social Security, employer-based pensions and health insurance, and the mass income tax, voluntary sector institutions have garnered less attention. The history of payroll deduction demonstrates how this “infrastructural power” also advantaged institutions outside of the state, notably, charitable fundraising organizations commonly known as Community Chests (the forerunners of the United Way). Chests began to look toward the payroll deduction in the 1920s as an efficient and effective way of extracting donations from workers of modest means—though these were often fiercely resisted by an empowered labor movement in the 1930s. But it took the state's vast expansion of deductions during World War II, and the patriotic impulse of donating to war-related charities, to convince industrial unions and employers to support this method of donation. Like the income tax, this change in charitable giving remained in place after the war and became a vital element of financing this part of the public–private social safety net—a crucial boost to the voluntary sector from the state.

The research is timely. Legislative battles are under way in several state capitals in the Midwest, as governors seeking to close state budget gaps propose restricting not only government workers' wages and benefits but their collective bargaining rights. Proponents of such measures argue that they are justified because public employees are overpaid compared with workers in the private sector. While such drastic measures are not heading for a vote in Missouri, other actions being taken imply that public employees are overcompensated. For example, Gov. Jay Nixon plans to reduce the state work-force again in 2011, after cutting 3,300 state jobs in 2010 (Noble and Kraske 2011). Additionally, a pension reform bill passed last summer now requires newly hired ...

This paper investigates whether Minnesota public employees are overpaid at the expense of the state’s taxpayers. The research is timely. Legislative battles are under way in several state capitals in the Midwest, as governors seeking to close state budget gaps propose restricting not only government workers’ wages and benefits but their collective bargaining rights. Proponents of such measures argue that public employees are overpaid compared with workers in the private sector. Indeed, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who has been vocally supporting such measures, boasted in the Wall Street Journal (December 13, 2010) that he fought public employee unions in the state and prevailed in a 44-day transit strike in 2005, reducing benefits for incumbent workers and all new hires. He touted as a success of his government frozen wages and new requirements that all public employees contribute more to their pensions. According to Pawlenty, public employees are overcompensated and pampered...

Metrics details

The management of employees' salaries is an extremely complex task and time-consuming job due to having a large volume of payroll data and calculations. In many developing regions and countries including the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, the accounting processes of salary are manual. This leads to low speed in the calculation processes of deductions and allowances, easy making errors, difficulty to maintain salaries of previous months, low efficiency, and delay in generating reports. This paper represents the design, implementation, and evaluation of a web-based payroll management system (WPMS). This system can calculate the salary of every employee per month and annum efficiently and effectively. Moreover, it can keep the records of employees’ data including their pay, allowances, and deductions on monthly bases in the data mart. Additionally, the system can speedily and automatically generate employees’ payslips, accurate reports, and detailed statistics. Furthermore, WPMS provides a user-friendly environment and enables users to easily access, update, and delete data. The system was implemented by using programming languages: HTML, PHP, JavaScript, jQuery, AJAX, and MySQL. To conclude, the system was investigated for its usability by using the system usability scale tool. The results achieved an 87.8% score of usability satisfaction.

Introduction

The volume of information in organizations has been continuously expanding in recent years, in several ways, it has become more critical for the development and growth of these organizations. Furthermore, this information assists in the successful and professional management of organizations. Therefore, organizations should modernize and operate in parallel with technological advancements [ 1 ]. Achieving this goal is essential to adapt to new development and competition in today's business environment. Consequently, organizations invest a lot of money in developing an information system that supports their growth. As a result, organizations will be able to perform more efficiently and effectively with this investment since information can be transferred seamlessly throughout organizations or departments inside the organization [ 2 ]. Having a good electronic information system can help with this procedure. The university is one of the most important organizations that should cope with the developments. There are multiple faculties in each university, and each faculty has multiple management units. One of these units is the payroll unit, which is responsible for managing payroll activities. Data gathering, input, modifications, monitoring, and reporting are all operations that must be performed by the payroll units in each faculty. By using this payroll system, the payroll unit could preserve all payroll records, including personal data and any modifications. Through interviews with payroll employees, it has been noticed that a lot of faculties continue to rely on paperwork and records, which have become conventional methods for managing all payroll activities. These conventional methods have various disadvantages, including time-consuming information transfer to linked units. Moreover, paper records are ‘non-value added’ operations. Accordingly, conventional payroll systems are inefficient; they do not meet the needs of beneficiaries, and the information delivered is of poor quality.

Numerous studies have been conducted exploring various aspects of payroll systems and utilizing diverse techniques. Singh et al. [ 3 ] presented a study titled “automated payroll system (A-PAY),” aimed to digitize the payroll process for faculty members, including the management of their personnel information and the calculation of allowances and deductions. The study utilized Vb.net as the front end and Microsoft Access 2007 with SQL Server 2008 as the back end. The result was a more efficient system with options for data backup and restoration, improved security, reduced calculation errors, and automatic report generation. Hikmah and Muqorobin [ 4 ] developed an employee payroll information system for Consulting Engineering Services company. They aimed to eliminate the challenges of manual payroll calculation. They conducted research through observation, interviews, documentation, and literature review, and used PHP and a MySQL database to build the system. The design improved payroll management and provided faster and easier retrieval of employee payroll information, leading to improved administrative processing efficiency. In the study conducted by Lu et al. [ 5 ], a comprehensive approach to the design and implementation of a three-tier salary management system for higher vocational colleges was presented. The existing system was found to be complex and time-consuming, leading the researchers to aim for a more efficient and accurate computerized payroll system. The research process involved analyzing the current status, needs, and requirements, and implementing the design using ASP.NET. The results indicated that the study's objectives were successfully achieved, as the developed system was efficient, time-saving, and enabled the organization to manage payroll effectively. Winanda et al. [ 6 ] presented a study titled “salary information system.” The authors identified inefficiencies in the manual salary calculation system at Tiara Handicraft Enterprise, including high labor requirements and inadequate communication between departments, leading to limited data validity. The objective of their research was to design and implement a new system that addressed these issues. The results indicated that the new automated system was capable of more efficiently and effectively calculating salary data.

In another study, Efendi [ 7 ] presented research on the implementation of the Civil Servant Salary SIM system in the Administrative Service Office of the Education Unit in Grogol District, Sukoharjo Regency. The author utilized a combination of interviews, application observation, and literature review to assess the efficiency and effectiveness of the computerized payroll management system. The system was developed using the online-offline model, with the PHP programming language and functional components such as administration and operations, management reporting, databases, search, and data management. The results showed that the application provided a more efficient, accurate, and effective solution compared to previous manual methods, allowing for the calculation and updating of salary data online, and implementing security measures through user authentication. In a recent contribution to the field, Rumetna et al. [ 8 ] aimed to design a payroll information system for the Sorong Islands District office. The Waterfall method was used as the development model and it consisted of 5 stages: requirements definition, system and software design, implementation and unit testing, integration and system testing, and operation and maintenance. The study was carried out by collecting data through direct interviews with 4 resource persons and by using various tools such as Unified Modeling Language, Macromedia Dreamweaver CS 6, and XAMPP. The system was tested using the Black Box Testing technique. The results showed that the payroll information system met the requirements of the Sorong Islands District office and was able to process employee salary data efficiently.

Our proposed system is distinct from prior works in terms of electronic auditing, making the audit process more efficient. Its flexible design makes it suitable for all types of organizations, as new units, allowances, and deductions can be easily added without modifying the code. The system calculates salary differentials for all months, taking into account delays in administrative orders for bonuses, salary increases, and promotions. It also has a responsive web design that adjusts the layout based on the visitor's screen size and orientation.

Research method

More than one style has been used in this system to gather and obtain the requirements. These styles are:

Data collection

The first phases in system design are data collecting and analysis. Therefore, the design of WPMS started with gathering data and requirements from different environments. This procedure has been conducted using multiple styles and tools, as follows:

Quantitative method: For evaluating the system implementation, the system usability scale (SUS) has been used as a quantitative method. Furthermore, some of the essential data were obtained directly through observations.

Qualitative method : The SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) technique is used as a qualitative method to determine the system requirements by a detailed analysis of the understudy university's internal and external environments. A questionnaire and an interview were utilized for this purpose. A questionnaire has been developed based on SWOT factors and reviewed by a group of strategic planning specialists and academicians. Resulting in accurate and direct access to the essential information.

Observation

Observations were also made on the university campus, several of the essential data were gathered directly through this method, which influenced the conclusions and discussion of the results.

System requirements

There is some essential requirement that must be considered to design and build a reliable, efficient, and scalable system as functional requirements, which particularly define system functionalities, behavior, and goals, as follows:

Make all salary calculation processes automated.

Inserting new faculties, accounts, and employees.

Managing permissions and roles.

Payslips and reports creation.

Performing audits and fixing errors if they exist.

Inserting new allowances and deductions.

Keeping the previous month's salary.

Retrieving the previous month's salary.

Keeping employees' personal information.

Additionally, the hardware and software tools that are required to develop and implement the proposed system are:

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)

Cascading Style Sheet (CSS)

JavaScript including (jQuery, Ajax, and JSON)

Personal Home Page (PHP)

Bootstrap framework

Server side: Web (PHP supported) server and database server.

Client side: Computing device to run a web browser.

System design

This section describes the system's design by categorizing the main factors and specifications of the system into modules. The system modules are classified into nine categories, as shown in Fig.  1 .

System modules

Users’ accounts module

There are several accounts for each faculty and each account does have a certain role. Each faculty has five different kinds of roles which are faculty admin, accountant, authorized viewer, auditor, and employee. However, there is only one main admin role for each university, which controls the accounts of all faculties. The system is designed to be a dynamic system that is intended to assist the main admin in the addition, updating, and deletion of faculties and their associated accounts on the system. The role of the main admin is the only role that can grant, delete, and change permissions of other users as well as access the aggregated salary reports of all faculties, whereas all other accounts may only see the salaries information of their faculty. Moreover, they are also limited to doing activities that are specifically assigned to them based on their role, such as the auditor is in charge of auditing; if an error exists, the auditor will not have the authority to modify it, while the accountant has the authority for inputting, removing, and modifying the data on payslips. Figure  2 shows the flowchart of the system accounts roles.

Users' accounts roles flowchart

Regardless of a user's role, they all have their profiles, which include their name, faculty, email, etc. Additionally, all users may communicate with each other by sending and receiving messages, while the notification messages can only be sent by the main admin, which is either sent to all admins or employees. The processes of activities and responsibilities of all roles are shown in Fig.  3 .

Users' roles use case diagram

Data manipulation language (DML) module

The operations (insert, update, and delete) of the data manipulation language (DML) are performed on three sections of the system. After each DML, a notification pops up to inform the user if the operation was successful or if an error occurred. These sections are as follows:

DML on payslips: The system can input, modify, and delete employees' salaries, as well as their deductions and allowances. During the execution process, there is a chance of interruptions and errors due to having many allowances and deductions for each employee. MySQL Transactions were utilized to overcome this issue, by grouping all data manipulation operations together sequentially. For a transaction to be completed, all operations within the group must be completed successfully. Otherwise, the whole transaction will fail.

For MySQL Transactions, the keywords “COMMIT” and “ROLLBACK” are used. Whenever a Transaction is finished successfully, the “COMMIT”command is used to apply the modifications to all tables involved. When a failure happens, a “ROLLBACK” command will be sent, which will restore the prior state of all tables referenced in the Transaction.

DML on initial data: New users, deductions, allowances, and faculties may all be added, modified, and deleted at any time, making this a dynamic system, as shown in the employees' page in Fig.  4 and the allowances page in Fig.  5 . There are some allowances all employees have, so when an employee's salary is added, these allowances are automatically added without the user having to select them.

DML on users' personal information: Some of the user's personal information, such as email, password, etc. can be added, updated, and deleted.

Employees page

Allowances page

Employee portal module

In the system, the employee portal functions as payroll and human resource extension. Employees that log into their employee portal page will only view information relevant to them and their department. The main page of the employee portal has a distinct user interface than the main page of another user, and also a distinct menu bar. Employees can get up-to-date and precise data and news through the portal. Employees may view their current month's salary as well as prior salaries.

Statistics module

The system includes numerous statistics, which can be found on the dashboard and reports. When there is a change or update in the system’s data, these statistics are automatically updated accordingly. The statistics are shown to users based on their role and permissions as well as which faculty they are from, while the university's overall statistics are available to the main admin only. Some statistics include the total of all existing staff and separate them based on their role either academic or administrative, as well as differentiate the academic staff based on their degrees.

The other statistics are displayed in graphics and charts. In general, they represent the total of all salaries, net salaries, as well as the amount saved and received by every employee for each month separately or the entire year, as well as each employee, has its own separate statistics that are displayed on his dashboard. Moreover, the monthly total of each allowance of all staff and the auditing results have their own statistics.

Payslips module

Every employee has a payslip, which contains information about their salaries, such as basic salary, receiving salary, ranking, grade, as well as all of their allowances and deductions. Each content of an employee's payslip can be modified and added to, as well as removed from the system. The Payslip page is shown in Fig.  6 .

Payslips page

Data mart module

Typically, a data mart comprises historical data obtained from transaction data. In this system, the data mart serves as an archive. A data mart is not updated regularly. The system stores all months' salaries in the data mart since need to compare each month's salaries to the prior months' salaries, and the percentage of variance is stored in the variance report. Moreover, the accountant will not need to insert all of the employees’ payslips content for each month, nevertheless, the prior salary will exist, and the accountant will only edit the information that has changed as the month date. In addition, through the data mart, all employees can view their salaries in the previous months.

Auditing module

Performing an audit is crucial to ensuring that the quality of information and the reliability of reports are high. The auditing procedure is carried out by the auditor. All payroll reports are audited by the auditor to ensure that they are accurate, timely, and dependable. The auditor has not the authority to fix any errors that may occur but does have the authority to identify the error and leave a note for the accountant to correct it. Figure  7 shows the auditing process.

Auditing flowchart

The auditing page is shown in Fig.  8 . When it loads, all of the “N/A” sign buttons are automatically selected, indicating that the row is not yet been audited. If the record is free from mistakes, the auditor must press the “ ✓ ” sign button. If there is a mistake in the record, the “✗” sign button must be pressed.

Auditing page

Reports module

This system contains many reports. The WPMS's report generation is one of its most important features, and it is worth noting that all reports are generated automatically. There are eight categories of reports: comparative balance sheet report, payslips report, payslips variance report, bank report, old payslips report, employee payslips report shown in Fig.  9 , allowances report, and deductions report. These reports can be viewed by all users except the account that have the employee's role, and they can also be printed and exported to Excel.

Employee’s payslip report

Security module

With the widespread transmission of information via the World Wide Web, security concerns have risen to the fore. The security of salary information is critical. The system's users' passwords are encrypted. Password encryption is one of the most basic security requirements for any program that accepts user passwords. In this system Bcrypt password encryption has been used, which hashes the passwords based on the Blowfish block cipher algorithm and saves only the hashed passwords [ 9 ]. Bcrypt is also an adaptive function, so the number of iterations can be increased over time to make it slower, making it resistant to brute-force search attempts even as computing power increases [ 10 ].

For user authentication, the WPMS utilizes the “Session” object, which enables each user for accessing only the data regarding their faculty. Additionally, it allows users to access only the information that is relevant to their role. Furthermore, for security reasons, the “Get” method is avoided by the system, which makes the data be sent via URL parameters and displayed in the address bar of the web browser.

Graphical user interface (GUI) design

Users can interact by using graphical icons and visual indicators with the graphical user interface (GUI) [ 11 ]. WPMS's graphical user interface (GUI) is user-friendly and easy to use. As shown in Fig.  10 , the user's main page's GUI consists of two primary parts: a menu bar and a dashboard. The menu bar is developed to let the user quickly navigate to the needed pages as it's a drop-down menu and can be slid In and Out. Furthermore, each user's menu bar is distinct from that of other users, as the content of the menu bar appears according to the user's role. The dashboard displays the most necessary information in a visual representation, which is collected and arranged on a single screen for monitoring. Moreover, if a change is made in the system, the dashboard's displayed data is automatically updated.

The user interface of WPMS

In this system, the responsive web design (RWD) method is applied. It is a method in web design that allows designing pages that are optimized for different types of devices [ 12 ]. As shown in Fig.  11 , which allows the information to be shown in the best possible way for the given screen size.

Responsive web design of WPMS

Compatibility testing

Compatibility testing is a type of testing for making sure that all system’s functions are effectively running on various platforms, the proposed system has been tested accordingly, which proved that the system is working effectively. Table 1 displays the system's compatibility testing results.

System usability testing

Usability refers to a system's capacity to be easily utilized to achieve a given purpose [ 13 ]. This is a feature that measures how easy the user interface is to use in web applications and computer software. When it interacts with a system, it is referred to as the “user experience”. When taken to its most basic level, this involves monitoring how the user interacts with the system. There must be a structured process to creating an effective system, starting with high-level goals and working down to particular objectives [ 14 ]. When it comes to defining “usability,” it's important to talk to potential users. The operational criteria for determining whether or not an information system is useable include: efficiency, effectiveness, satisfaction, accessibility, and usefulness [ 15 ].

Measurement of usability may be done using various methodologies and techniques. As one of the most popular surveys is Nielson ratings, that commonly used during the early phases of product development to properly understand the potential user [ 15 ]. Usability testing may be done by conducting a questionnaire, which is one of the most used methods. Additionally, another method designed to quantify the system's efficiency and satisfaction is the system usability scale (SUS) method [ 16 ].

The system has been tested by the contribution of (25) potential users, who have answered the 10 SUS questions, which are shown in Table 2 . These questions have been graded from 1 to 5 by users based on how much they agree with the questions. It is shown in Table 3 that 75% is the lowest SUS score whereas 100% is the highest, according to the SUS rules, it is a perfect score, while the score of 75% is an allowed ratio. The following is how the scores were determined by SUS:

Take 1 point from the final score for each question with an odd number.

Subtract the value of each even-numbered question from 5.

After finding the new values, add them to the overall score. Simply multiply by 2.5.

The SUS survey results of the system were (87.8%), which indicates a high degree of overall satisfaction with the system. In case the system's usability score is lower than 68, there are likely major issues with the system.

The results of the analysis showed that all understudy universities have an urgent need for an electronic salary system. The SWOT analysis identifies the university's most promising chances for developing new ICT technologies to improve communication between academic departments, faculties, and the university's presidency. WPMS is built to be flexible, since additional faculties, allowances, deductions, etc. can be inserted at any time. In accordance with the requirements and needs, the system considers the security issues into account, such as the password of the user being encrypted. Furthermore, each user may only access pages and data related to their role and their faculty, also the system avoids utilizing the “Get” method. The system automates report production and auditing procedures, which save a significant amount of time, whereas manual data collection, takes a long time. An additional feature of the system is having a data mart that contains all the salaries for all months, which allows employees to find out all the details about their salaries. The system's satisfaction was high, according to the SUS evaluation results, which was (87.8%). The results also showed that the system is user-friendly, adaptable, and simple to use.

Introduction

The purpose of SDSSU Payroll System is mainly to provide automation to the SDSSU accounting section. The categories of this system where the accountant can calculate the amount an employee owe based on factors such as the time they worked, their hourly wages or salaries, and whether they took vacation or holiday time during the pay period. The system adjusts gross pay by calculating and subtracting taxes and other withholding amounts. This system was designed for convenience, less time cost.

According to Kenan Kalagho (2013) writer of Busineess Weeks in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania the Payroll System saves Tanzania’s Government $927 Million. The government is currently saving some $927 million (Tsh1.5 billion) after introducing a new payroll system.

The proponents developed SDSSU Payroll System based in admin solution used to simultaneously track their employee information .The importance of this system in the establishment is that all the record and information in different department and offices well gathered by the admin. The researchers well provide to input their details to the admin all the staff in SDSSU Cantilan Campus. This will give detailed information for the staff or employees of the accounting section. Through this system the records of the staff or employees is easily and orderly organized, systematic and manageable they can see each of theme their detailed information about their own records.

A manual payroll system typically requires a great deal of paperwork. And manual process also creates an administrative burden for you and your HR staff. The payroll system represents an accounting or finance function business owners use to pay employees for their labor. Payroll systems can be internal or external, depending on the business owner’s knowledge and experience.

CHAPTER II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE, STUDIES, AND PRIOR ART SEARCH

This document presents various related literatures, studies, and prior arts which are relevant in the conduct and development of the project entitled web based payroll system.

The said system is a web based platform designed and developed in PHP, MySQL and Bootstrap.

Related Literature Automated Payroll System of Pamana Medical Centre

According to the researchers Aguilera Bronzas and Marqueses (2010) a great payroll is really one of the most important issues to pay attention in almost every company. It is impossible to handle payroll responsibilities with a pen, ledger sheet and calculator, but nowadays it is more convenient for most companies to use computerized payroll software ( www.scribd.com ).

Krizalen Enterprise Payroll with Biometric System

According to the researchers Alvarez, Aldrine, Gecolea (2014) uses a biometrics with online data analytics dashboard to give krizalen enterprises an efficient payroll system that can automatically monitor the attendance and trip tickets of the employees, drivers and helpers with the biometrics technology and data analytics that would help them in the security and accuracy of the company payroll and information. Summing up the past situation of payroll inside krizalen enterprises, there was need for a system that could help them with employee information management attendance, monitoring, payroll processes, and assistance for the manager decision making. With this idea, the proponents conducted a study for the development of software that can minimize data redundancy, inconsistency, and manipulation. Employees can view their current pay and review their information from the database. And with updating of the reports that can be viewed through the internet, the manager can view the recent activities within the proposed system ( www.scribd.com ).

Computerized Payroll System of Department of Health (DOH)

The Computerized Payroll System of Department of Health is a window based program especially designed to facilitate and simplify the monthly preparation of general payroll and related reports such as Standard computerized payroll system for use in all DOH offices. It allows faster and more accurate computation of monthly gross income, deductions and net salary, less-resource-consuming generation of General Payroll and other payroll related reports and security and integrity of payroll data and information. The features of computerized payroll system of DOH are graphical user interface interactive and menu-driven program, systematic maintenance and retrieval of employee records ( www.doh.gov.ph ).

Attendance Monitoring using Biometric with Payroll System

According to the University of California (May 15, 2016) in modern world there are many systems that are implemented to some industries in order to improve the manual transaction of the university. As new generation comes, a new technology has developed to provide the users fast and reliable transactions. This study tells the use of computer that will lessen the time and effort for updating and other ways of processing in accurate ways. Our propose system is for the Faculty Members of Cavite State University Silang Campus which we got curiosity on how the Faculty Members make a process that is why we make a system that we hope it might help a lot for the Faculty members. We are going to develop this system to improve our skills and make it useful for others especially with our target client. Biometrics has long being touted as a powerful tool for solving identification and authentication issues for immigration and customs, physical security and computer security ( www.studymoose.com ).

Tanzania’s Government Payroll System

According to Kenan Kalagho writer of Business Weeks in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania the Payroll System saves Tanzania’s Government $927 Million. The government is currently saving some $927 million (Tsh1.5 billion) after introducing a new payroll system. Speaking in Dar es Salaam last week, the Assistant Director in the President’s Office, Public Service Management Peter Mushi said: “We have been able to solve to a larger extent the issue of ghost workers where the government was losing a lot of monies in salary,” Mushi said. He said the new system allows managers to monitor any changes that have been made on an individual’s information. Most countries in the region are battling with the issue of ghost workers which has been costing governments dearly. Mushi said the money saved is being used for other government development projects. The system has helped the government to eliminate and save cash in terms of salaries to some 34, 645 public servants from government payroll who were either already retirees’ or were already demised but had their monthly salaries updates in the former system ( www.bcp.edu.ph ).

Introduction.

Technology is now part of our lives especially to students. As years’ pass, schools, state colleges, universities and other business get to adopt the modern technologies. Most people nowadays can’t imagine their lives without technology.

Many people believe that using computer is necessary to function effectively in society. Nowadays computer plays the important role in today’s generation, it makes work easier.

One of the essential processes that can be automated is the daily time in and time out of the Student Assistants or it’s timekeeping. This process is important because it reflects to the total number of hours that the Assistant had worked, which affects the salary that student assistant would receive.

Using a logbook is one of the effective ways of keeping an amount of time that the assistant worked. However, this system can also do what a logbook can do. One of the most secure ways of identifying the person is by using their Biometric.

This study aims to develop a system that will generate the reports easily without a bulk of paperwork and will compute its payroll accurate.

Background of the Study

ABC Company Student Assistants Time Keeping is done manually. Proponents will develop a system that can keep their records and can monitor the total time of duty rendered.

Statement of the Objective

This study aims to:

• Lessen the difficulty in the calculation of Payrolls.
• To secure the timekeeping process.
• To provide an accurate monthly reports.
• To easily view the Student Assistants Information.

Conceptual Framework

          The Payroll System can secure and monitor all the data’s.

Scope and Delimitation of the Study

Scope of the study.

          This study focus on the  Campus where in a biometric timekeeping will be used. The DTR System will record the daily time keeping and information of the student assistant and will produce the corresponding reports. The proponents can also view their schedule and the time rendered and can print their reports and schedule.

Delimitation of the Study

          Job orders and Faculty will not be included in this system or study. Overnight duties will not be calculated by the system. Earlier than 15 minutes to supposed schedule time in is prohibited.

Significance of the Study

          The student assistant will no longer fill the logbook to record their daily time keeping. Student assistants can perform time keeping using biometrics. It could be easy to determine their salary since the reports were already available.

Management the system can help monitor their student assistant time keeping and can compute the payroll. It can also generate reports faster and accurate. It will be the easiest way of keeping student assistants records and monitoring their performance.

Future researchers this study will serve as their guide in making their system.

          Proponents this study will widen their knowledge by doing research and brainstorming.

Definition of Terms

The Cantier Solution

          Many companies today see the need for a Human Resource Application. Although there are a few choices on the market, many of these are costly and most are incomplete, lacking payroll and local benefits of the host country.

Some companies have decided to automate and purchased an HR application from one supplier, a payroll application from another supplier and then needed to hire a 3rd party integrator to tie HR and Payroll into their existing systems.

Faced with costly and complicated solutions, some companies have decided to stay with their antiquated paper based HR and Payroll System. Living with all the inefficiencies experienced over the years like on time document retrieval, transaction delays between HR and Payroll, data duplication, missing records, security issues, clerical errors, wasted human resources in the HR department and space consumed by all the records. Still others thinking it less of a headache have outsourced the entire HR operation. Only to realize, a higher cost of outsourcing and the leakage of payroll/benefit information causing serious and lasting personnel issues in the workplace.

So Cantier Created a HRMS it is an integrated HR and Payroll system that manages the personnel-related tasks for managers and individual employees. Our HRMS supports Personnel management, Employment management, Benefit management, Daily Time Record Management (Integrated with Bio-Metric Devices), Shi Management, Payroll management, Leave Management, Training Management and Performance Evaluation. It has self-service features as well for employees to interact with their HR department on line and thus reducing much of HR Personnel manual work.

Fingerprint Biometric Attendance System

The increasing complexity of administrative operations in Colegio de St. Monique in Binangonan, Rizal, is the effect of the growing population of students, faculty and administration and the physical expansion of the institution. The increase in complexity means additional manpower and workloads and more complicated data processing system. To meet the growing needs of education, the institution, as a result formulated new innovations, techniques ,methods and modernized equipment to aid the complexity of operations. New facilities such as the computer were developed, not only for the instructions, but also for research and academic applications. Technologies such as the fingerprint Biometrics ID System make identification and attendance an easy task. The burden will be lessen for the IT and Human Resource personnel. That usually is a long process of logging in and out and identification is eliminated. Further, a Computerized Payroll System will help a lot in processing salaries and other financial matters for the employees. It will help reduce if not totally get rid of errors encountered when handling the payroll manually. Recording and monitoring the movement of faculties as they arrive at work, have breaks and leave for the day were traditionally performed by writing logs. Replacing the manual process with computerized attendance system with the application of biometrics technology prevents any abuses of the system and can be incorporated with time management soware to produce management accounting and personnel reports. Generally speaking, any situation that allows an interaction between human and machine is capable of incorporating biometrics. Such situations may fall into a range of application areas. Biometrics is currently being used in areas such as computer desktops, networks, and monitoring the time and attendance of staff. (By: Angela Faye, 29 March 2012)

HP mastermind’s complex new payroll data infrastructure

According to Robert Elsen, director, Secretariat of the Belgian Integrated Police “HP has provided us with an efficient and transparent solution that has been welcomed by our staff and ensures that they are all paid the correct amount, on time.” When several police organizations were amalgamated into one national force, the Belgian government needed a new, centralized payroll system for its 48,000 police employees. This large and complex solution was successfully implemented by HP Enterprise Services. The results include more accurate accounts, improved management and improved staff morale. It also allows for the smooth integration with other public sector departments.

In 2001, the Belgian government called for a complete overhaul of the country’s policing system, replacing the former Gendarmerie, Criminal Investigation Department and Municipal Police with a unified force. These integrated police service employs 48,000 people and is made up of the Federal Police and 196 local divisions that operate autonomously but share common services.

Following the integration, payroll continued to be run via outdated applications on inefficient hardware. These were unpopular with the various local divisions who felt that there was not enough visibility of payroll data. The government therefore decided that payroll for the entire force should be centrally administered by the Secretariat of the Belgian Integrated Police (SSGPI), an autonomous service reporting to the Ministry of the Interior.

Payroll and Benefits System in Japan

According to Japan Management Consulting there are two main payroll taxes in their country the Social Insurance and Labor Insurance. Social Insurance provides to employees a Social Insurance card that allows them to visit any medical facilities and pay only 30% of the total cost. It is government mandated universal coverage for employees and Japanese employees are usually satisfied with it and do not require additional health care benefits.

Employee National tax liability is calculated by the company and deducted monthly from the salary. Employee Residential tax liability (local tax or state tax is calculated by the ward office of the residence of the employee).

Employee can ask company to have it deducted from salary. This is the common case.  Employees are usually paid on the 25 th  of the month in Japan but another can be fixed freely by the company. Employees usually get paid their commutation costs from home to the company. However, this is not an obligation.

Synthesis       

          In an overall discussion and all the related studies that we have. Payroll is the computation of all the financial record of salaries, bonus, wages and deduction. In all the studies the main problem in both foreign and local literature is their payroll. The main purpose of their payroll system is to ensure the accuracy and timely of the amount of their monthly payment.

Therefore, we conclude that each and every literature and studies in this research is the same on our proposed system. Same as through our system is related to the flow of their existing systems. Also, both foreign and local system is very effective and efficient to use but as the technology grows they should also update and upgrade their system to be more effective and reliable.

Proponents will create aPayroll System for the Student Assistants in   that is reliable, effective and accurate to use in the Institution much better than the system of both foreign and local companies state on this research

Methodology of the Study

This chapter describes and discusses how the proponents will gather data and information that will be used in the entire study. The proponents will follow the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC).

Planning Phase

In this phase, the researcher will gather information to know what the problem is. Proponents want to achieve the best system that we can to satisfy the management. The proponents will also use Prototype Model.

Analysis Phase

Through gathering information and by discussing the problem. This involves studying the processes, gathering operational data, understand the information flow and find ways/solution to solve the problem.

Design Phase

It is where the proponent can identify the detailed of the system during the previous phases or how can understand the content or the whole system.

Development Phase

In the developmental phase, the  Student Assistant DTR and Payroll System are being developed together with the document.

Testing Phase

In this phase the proponents would like to try it on the Student Assistants to test if our system is accurate or effective. The proponents will be using biometric to Log in and the proponents will check if the system is good or if it is working.

Implementation Phase

This system will be implemented in all the Student Assistants in   by the use of biometric so that it will be easy to access their accounts.

Maintenance Phase

This system will require maintenance every month in order to keep the system functionality, accurate to be able to use it well.

Operational Feasibility

At the present, the Student Assistants are not using any electronic devices for their daily time inn and time out. This system will help their time consume in paperwork’s and accessible system for their Daily Time Record. With that this system will be beneficial and efficient in the management.

The goals of the system are to develop the following functionalities.

• To have more secure timekeeping transactions.
• The system will provide accurate monthly reports.
• The system can easily view the Student Assistants Information.

In this method proponents used different type of languages. The HTML is the Hypertext Markup Language, a standardized system for tagging text files to achieve font, color, graphic, and hyperlink effects on World Wide Web pages.

JavaScript is an object-oriented computer programming language commonly used to create interactive effects within web browsers.

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a computer language that is used to write formatting instructions. These rules tell a web browser how webpage content should look in terms of: layout. Position, alignment, width, height, etc.

The main language that the proponents used is PHP. PHP is a script language and interpreter that is freely available and used primarily on Linux Web servers. PHP originally derived from Personal Home Page Tools, now stands for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor, which the PHP FAQ describes as a “recursive acronym.”

PHP is a server side scripting language design for web development but also used as general purpose programming language.

PHP code can be simple mixed with aer the PHP code is interpreted and executed, the web server provide the accurate records of the SA’s as an output. PHP code can generate a page’s HTML code and some other data.

MySQL is an open source relational database management system. MySQL database is stored in the form of related tables. MySQL provides a brief overview of the most commonly used MySQL aggregate functions.
