Zoho Payroll offers users federal, state and local tax compliance across all 50 states with automated calculating, paying and filing of taxes. The product also sports automated compliance updates to keep up with changes in law and regulations. Users can configure the software for how their organizations work, with the ability to set custom salary structure, unique benefits and more. There are also features for auto-generated exportable reports allowing users to gain more visibility into payroll expenses and tax withholdings. Beyond pay, the software can also handle employee benefits, including health care, retirement savings and paid time off, and manage contributions to an employee's 401(k), 403(b), health savings account and flexible spending account.
The solution also offers access to a mobile-first employee self-service portal, available on iOS and Android devices, which enables employees to view pay slips, benefits contributions and salary breakdowns, modify tax-withholding preferences, and communicate with HR.
Zoho Payroll integrates with Zoho People, Zoho Expense and Zoho Books, which enables automatic syncing of employee data, initiation of expense reimbursements, and posting of payroll journal entries
"Zoho Payroll addresses the struggles our customers were facing in finding a system to keep up with endless revisions to tax codes, maintain accuracy and compliance across departments, and generate financial reports," said Raju Vegesna, chief evangelist at Zoho. "The growth of our array of finance apps is driven by our customers, and that will never change."
Zoho Practice has several new capacities. The new workpapers feature automatically fetches client financial statements from Zoho Books, enabling comparisons, adjustments, document management and collaboration for review and approval. The self-service portal enables accountants to collaborate with clients who use third-party services, facilitating document requests, digital signatures and communication. The solution boasts workflow automation, custom functions and scheduling options that support tailoring of operational workflow.
Zoho Books has also introduced a suite of new features, including support for direct filing of 1099- MISC and 1099-NEC forms with the IRS, with provisions for collecting and managing W-9 forms from contractors. Furthermore, the new progress-based invoicing capacity allows businesses to invoice customers incrementally. There are also new bill pay capabilities, which lets users auto-scan bills, set up vendor approval flows, perform three-way matches for accuracy, and process batch payments. Other advanced features include revenue recognition, which automatically recognizes revenue based on contractual obligations or when the service is delivered, and fixed asset management, allowing the recording of asset details, automatic depreciation calculations, and the generating of forecast reports.
Finally, in Zoho Inventory, advanced warehouse management capabilities—such as enhanced location tracking and labeling, stock counting, stock out alerts, and role-based access to the warehouse operations—offer more inventory control, accurate stock levels, and faster order processing.
