Pay your crew from the hours they actually logged
When payroll and job costing read from the same clock-in data, labor cost and labor pay finally agree. Wages, payroll records, deposits, and W-2 export all run off the timesheets your crew is already filling.
What payroll covers
- Wage rates per technician
- Payroll records built from logged timesheet hours
- Direct-deposit payroll payments
- W-2 export at year end
- Geofence logging to verify on-site hours
- Timesheet rules and supervisor overrides
- Payroll posting into the accounting ledger
- Workers-compensation records alongside it
One clock-in, three uses
The same clock-in event pays the technician, costs the job, and posts to the ledger. Systems that keep those separate are where the discrepancy between "what we billed" and "what we paid" hides.
Payroll is regulated
Wage and hour law, overtime rules, worker classification, and payroll tax obligations vary by state and are genuinely complex. Seayora provides the records and the exports; it does not provide tax or employment-law advice. Work with a qualified payroll professional.
Frequently asked questions
Where do payroll hours come from?
From technician clock-in and clock-out against jobs, with geofence logging available to verify on-site presence and supervisor overrides where a correction is needed.
Can I export W-2s?
Yes. W-2 export is supported at year end.
Does payroll post to my books?
Yes. Payroll posts into the accounting ledger rather than living in a separate system.
