Earnie Overview

EARNIE is an award-winning payroll and one of the most flexible packages available on the market today.

Paying your employees is an important activity for any business, large or small. Earnie Payroll is one of the most flexible payroll packages available today with a range of benefits specifically designed to increase efficiency and save time every payday. Not only will payments be processed, such as bonuses, shift payments, commission and expenses, but we also ensure that statutory deductions in line with current legislation.

Earnie payroll software integrates with Exchequer Enterprise accounting software. This means timesheets can be imported into Earnie from Exchequer Enterprise and an accounts journal is posted back into the Exchequer Enterprise general ledger for payroll summaries.

Earnie Payroll offers the functionality and flexibility you can expect from a leading payroll software package including:

  • SQL database functionality for multi-site and larger systems
  • Instant reporting, allowing you to provide accurate management data
