Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about RosterMates' payroll summary and reporting

RosterMates exports payroll-ready data to Xero Payroll, PayHero, Crystal Payroll, iPayroll and Smartly, with additional support for Excel/CSV layouts and NZ bank batch payment files. Approved hours, leave, and public holiday data go straight into your payroll system without re-keying anything.
Yes. RosterMates is IRD-approved payroll software, so you can run payroll end-to-end inside the platform: PAYE, student loan and ESCT are calculated for you, and your Employment Information (payday filing) return is submitted to Inland Revenue directly from RosterMates. There's no separate payroll subscription to pay for or sync with.
Keep whatever works for you. Many customers use RosterMates for rostering, time tracking and timesheets, then export approved hours to Xero, PayHero, Crystal, iPayroll or Smartly each pay run. Others use RosterMates' built-in IRD-approved payroll and skip the separate payroll system entirely. Both paths use the same summary view, so switching later is straightforward.
RosterMates automatically identifies public holidays within your pay period and separates them from standard hours and leave in the summary view. Each line item is clearly labelled so your payroll export is accurate and audit-ready, with no manual adjustments needed.
Yes. The summary view gives managers a consolidated view of all approved hours, leave, and public holidays for the pay period before any export is triggered. You can review, query, and confirm everything is correct — ensuring payroll is right the first time, every time.
RosterMates' summary reporting is built to reflect how your business is structured. Hours can be broken down by employee, role, or location, making it straightforward to allocate costs across departments or cost centres before exporting to your payroll or accounting system.
RosterMates retains your historical timesheet and pay period data so you can run summary reports for any previous pay period. This is useful for audits, resolving pay disputes, or reviewing labour costs over time — giving you a reliable record without needing to dig through spreadsheets or paper files.
Yes. The summary view can be filtered by individual employee, team, department, or location — so you only see the data that's relevant to the pay run you're processing. This is especially useful for businesses with multiple sites or managers who are responsible for specific teams rather than the whole workforce.
RosterMates clearly distinguishes between approved and unapproved hours in the summary view. Unapproved entries are flagged so managers can address them before processing payroll — reducing the risk of paying for hours that haven't been reviewed or of missing hours that need to be included.
Timesheets in RosterMates are where individual shift hours are reviewed and approved on a per-employee, per-shift basis. The summary view is the final step before payroll — it aggregates all approved hours, leave, and public holidays across your team into a single pay period overview, ready for export to your payroll system.
