Overview

Why businesses choose this

Managing hundreds or thousands of employees across shifts, departments and units is hard when attendance lives in a machine, payroll in Excel and leave requests on paper. MA Digital HRMS brings everything together in one cloud system — and puts an Employee Self-Service (ESS) app in every employee’s pocket for attendance, payslips, leave and approvals.

Attendance that just works

Direct integration with ZKTeco and other biometric machines pulls punches automatically. Supports multiple shifts, rotational rosters, overtime rules, late/early deductions, gate passes and field attendance with GPS and selfie verification from the mobile app.

Payroll in minutes, not days

Salary structures, allowances, deductions, advances, loans, bonuses, EOBI, PESSI, income tax slabs and arrears are calculated automatically. Generate bank transfer files, payslips (PDF / app) and statutory reports with one click — for monthly, weekly or piece-rate workers.

Built for factories and offices alike

Whether you run a 3,000-worker textile mill with contractors and piece rates or a 50-person office with flexible hours, the HRMS adapts — with department-wise budgets, headcount planning and labour cost per unit reports.

Save HR time

Cut payroll processing time by up to 80% and eliminate manual attendance reconciliation.

Total visibility

Real-time headcount, attendance and cost dashboards for management on any device.

Happier employees

Self-service access to payslips, leave balances and approvals builds trust and transparency.
