# Payroll Reports

Found in the **SA Payroll** workspace (Frappe HR required). Use these to review a run, reconcile to the ledger, and prepare statutory submissions.

| Report | What it shows | Use it to |
|---|---|---|
| **Payroll Register** | Every employee's earnings, deductions, net pay and statutory amounts for the period | Review the whole run; reconcile to the General Ledger. |
| **EMP201 Report** | PAYE, UIF, SDL and ETI totals for the month | Prepare and check the monthly EMP201. |
| **Statutory Submissions Summary** | Consolidated statutory totals across periods | See PAYE/UIF/SDL/ETI trends and coverage. |
| **Retirement Fund Deductions** | Retirement contributions by employee/component | Reconcile against the fund's schedules. |
| **Department Cost Analysis** | Payroll cost by department | Management and budgeting. |

Standard HRMS reports (Salary Register, Bank Remittance, Income Tax Computation) are also available.

## Month-end reconciliation routine

1. **Payroll Register** totals = General Ledger payroll postings.
2. **PAYE Payable – SARS** balance = EMP201 PAYE.
3. UIF (employee + employer) = EMP201 UIF; SDL = EMP201 SDL.
4. ETI total = the monthly ETI summed across slips.
5. **Payroll Payable** = the EFT batch net pay.

When these tie out, you're ready to declare on the [EMP201](../running-payroll/emp201-monthly).

## Tips

- Filter by **company** and the **payroll period** (and department where useful).
- Run the **Payroll Register** before submitting the Payroll Entry to catch outliers early.
