Does your HR software include payroll, or is that separate?

Payroll is included. It is one of the five HCM modules, not a separate product. Monthly runs read hours straight from attendance, apply tax, statutory deductions, benefits, allowances and loan instalments, generate payslips and post the whole run into accounting once released. Multi-currency is supported. If payroll is the main thing you are buying, the payroll page goes into far more depth than this one.

Can we buy the HRMS on its own, without ERP or POS?

Yes. The Starter plan is deliberately one suite, so you can run HRMS software for records, attendance, leave, payroll and self-service without touching ERP or POS. Adding a suite later joins the same database rather than needing an integration built, and that is the practical difference: payroll already posts to the general ledger the day you switch accounting on.

How much does HR software in Pakistan cost with Nexovant?

Starter is $49 per user per month and Professional is $99, both billed per user with data migration and training included. Enterprise is quoted against scope, and PKR quotes are available on request. There is a 14-day free trial. Starter covers one suite, so HCM on its own sits there; Professional is the tier that runs ERP, HCM and POS together.

How does it capture attendance for staff who are not in an office?

Two ways, and you can mix them. Biometric devices at a branch handle fixed-site staff, and Nexovant integrates with the device rather than replacing it. Field teams and riders use geo-fenced GPS check-in from the self-service app instead. Both feed the same real-time attendance dashboard and the same overtime, late and short-leave rules, so payroll sees one consistent set of hours.

Do employees get their own app, or does everything go through HR?

Every employee gets the mobile self-service app. They can view and download payslips, request leave and see their balance, check attendance history, raise corrections, and read company announcements and documents. Managers get approvals in the same app. A lot of routine HR traffic is people asking for something they could look up themselves, which is the point of putting it on their phone.

We keep everything in spreadsheets. How does our employee data move across?

Send us what you have. A spreadsheet of employees, contract dates and leave balances is the usual starting point, and we import it as part of the rollout. Scanned contracts and documents go into the per-employee document vault. Migration is included on every plan rather than billed separately, and we run one payroll cycle in parallel before you retire the old method.

Can each branch manage its own team, or does head office approve everything?

Each branch can manage its own. Approval chains are multi-step and branch-level, so a branch manager approves their own team's leave and sees the impact on the live roster. Holiday calendars are configured per branch, which matters for multi-city operations. Head office keeps oversight through the organisation structure and reporting lines rather than by signing off every half-day.

What is the difference between an HRMS and an employee management system?

Very little in practice. An HRMS is the employee record system: profiles, documents, org structure, hiring, onboarding, appraisals and training. An employee management system usually describes the same thing from the operations side, with attendance and leave attached. Nexovant covers both in one suite. What matters when comparing options is whether attendance, leave and payroll sit on the same record.

What this is

HR software in Pakistan, from records to payslips

Nexovant HCM is HR software in Pakistan built as one system rather than a set of tools stitched together. It keeps a single record per employee from the day they apply: contract, documents, reporting line, probation dates, appraisals and eventual exit. Attendance, leave and payroll all read from that same record, so a promotion entered once does not need re-entering anywhere else. It runs on the same backbone as our ERP and POS suites.

The suite is five modules. Employee records and HRMS holds the org structure, the document vault, the recruitment pipeline and onboarding checklists. Attendance captures hours through a biometric device at the branch or a geo-fenced check-in for field staff. Leave encodes your policy once and applies it evenly. Payroll reads those hours. Self-service puts payslips, balances and approvals on a phone. Turn them on together, or in stages.

If you are still running an attendance register, a salary sheet and a folder of scanned contracts, the monthly job is reconciling the three against each other. Here the hours on a payslip are the hours the device recorded, and the leave deducted is the leave a manager approved. Branch-level approval chains matter as much as the modules do: a branch manager signs off their own team rather than sending every request to head office.

Who it is built for

Multi-branch retailers and restaurant groups: Shift rosters, biometric or geo-fenced clock-in and per-branch holiday calendars, with each branch manager approving their own team's leave.
Manufacturers and distributors: Overtime and short-leave rules applied evenly across a production floor, with hours flowing into payroll instead of being tallied by hand.
Growing services firms with field teams: GPS check-in for staff who are rarely in an office, plus a mobile app that answers the payslip and leave-balance questions they would otherwise send to HR.
HR and finance teams still on spreadsheets: One employee record with contracts, documents and confirmation dates in it, so month-end payroll is a review rather than a reconstruction.

The rollout, and how it connects

What the HCM suite covers

The HCM suite is five modules on one backbone. Employee records covers the database, document vault, organisation structure and reporting lines, plus recruitment, onboarding checklists, contract and probation tracking, performance reviews and training records. Attendance handles biometric devices, GPS check-in, shift rosters and overtime rules. Leave covers entitlements, accrual, carry-forward and multi-step approvals, with holiday calendars set per branch. Payroll runs monthly with tax, statutory deductions, benefits, loans and payslips. Self-service is the mobile app that hands staff their payslips, balances and attendance history, and gives managers approvals on the same phone.

Attendance and time tracking: biometric device integration, geo-fencing and GPS check-in, shift scheduling and rosters, overtime, late and short-leave rules, real-time attendance dashboard

Employee self-service: mobile app with payslip download, leave requests and balances, attendance history and corrections, manager approvals, company announcements and documents

What a rollout involves, and what data moves

An HR and payroll rollout usually runs four to eight weeks, and headcount matters less than how messy the starting data is. We import your employee list, contract dates and leave balances, agree the leave types and shift patterns with you, then run one payroll in parallel with your existing method before anything goes live. Migration and training are included on every plan. Biometric hardware is the only physical requirement, and only if you want device-based attendance; geo-fenced check-in needs nothing but the staff app on a phone.

Typical HR and payroll implementation: 4-8 weeks, depending on headcount and integrations
Migrated for you: employee list, contract and probation dates, leave balances, scanned documents into the per-employee vault
Configured with you: leave types and entitlements, shift rotations, overtime rules, approval chains, branch holiday calendars
Hardware: biometric devices where you want fixed-site clock-in; nothing extra for GPS check-in
Migration and training are included on Starter, Professional and Enterprise, with a 14-day trial first

How HR connects to payroll, POS and the ledger

Attendance and payroll each deserve more detail than one page allows, so both have their own. What matters here is the joins. Hours captured at a branch become payable hours in the payroll run, with no tallying step in between. A released payroll posts into the ERP general ledger as journal entries against the right cost centre. On the POS side, shift and cash control tracks variance by till and by user, against the same staff the HR record describes. Pricing is per user per month, so the bill follows headcount.

Works with the rest of the platform

Nothing here is an add-on bolted on later. These modules share the same data, so switching one on does not mean another migration.
