Abstract: Payroll is a critical operation for every organization to pay employee accurately their sal- ary and emoluments on time. For a big organization, the idea of taking control of employees pay calcu- lations is quite daunting. This computer based payroll system aims to explain in simple terms what payroll involves and demystify the payroll processes. Moreover it is a powerful tool to streamline the time consuming and complex tasks of employee payroll scheduling and planning. This system provides multiple user data access. Each user walks through the entire payroll process as per rights allocated from adding new employee to generate pay slips with clear step by step instructions. Furthermore the system is flexible to implement changes in pay scales. This Computer based payroll system is capable of keeping a record of employee data including their pay, allowances, deductions and taxes on monthly bases so that fresh definitions are reflected from the month onwards, which leaves all the past data in- tact. This system has been developed using PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Ajax and database has been designed using MySQL. The proposed computer based payroll system is advantageous as it pro- vides a user friendly environment. This payroll system increases security and minimizes human calcu- lation errors.
