CONTEXT

When this template fits

Who it is for

For companies running payroll themselves or preparing input for a tax advisor. The process helps most when time tracking, variable components and master data changes arrive from different sources.

Where it typically stalls

At the cut-off date. Notifications from departments arrive late, payroll runs anyway, and the correction follows next month. The template pulls the reporting deadline forward as its own step before capture.

What it connects to

Upstream are onboarding and offboarding, which change master data. Downstream are accounting and statutory reporting.

Relation to standards

Payroll data is highly sensitive and the group of authorised people is small. The template assigns every step to a lane so it becomes visible who sees which data.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

A single process says little about where it sits in the company. These maps show it among its neighbours.
