PayrollKu

PayrollKu began as a university assignment to create a simple financial application, but quickly evolved into a fully featured payroll system platform. I set out to solve a real world challenge and scenario from indonesia, time consuming, error prone payroll processing and complex regulatory compliance. Built with the MERN stack, PayrollKu providing rich feature of the entire payroll lifecycle, from salary calculation to tax compliance, while minimizing manual input. It handles PPh 21 progressive tax calculation, BPJS health coverage and employment contributions and supports highly customizable salary structures for different employee levels. The platform provides secure role based access control, automated digital and profesional payslip generation with email distribution, advanced reporting dashboards for further analytics, and Excel export functionality for integration with accounting workflows. The result is a scalable solution that hours of manual work each month, minimizing payroll errors, and ensures compliance with Indonesian tax and labor regulations, going far beyond the original scope of the academic project.
