HR & payroll


In simple words
HR & payroll is part of Finance. Salary payouts posted automatically. This guide takes you through it in 7 short steps.
Where it fits in your work — Reconcile & report. Match bank and cash, then read profit & loss, balance sheet, cash flow and tax reports.
Before you start
- You need to be signed in to your company's workspace. Finance appears in the Workspace dashboard and in the left menu when your role includes it.
- What you can see and change depends on your role. If a menu item or button is missing, ask your workspace owner to give your role access in Workspace → Users.
