Bookkeeping and Accounting Features FAQ

Can I setup multiple pay rates and penalties?

The accounting software for retail shop you choose must be able to handle multiple rates of pay for your staff, reflecting casual staff loadings, overtime rates, and penalty rates for weekends and public holidays. RetailBasics lets you define up to four different hourly rates for each of your employees, which you can assign to their rostered hours or apply when submitting trading day data.

Will RetailBasics take care of tax and superannuation deductions for me?

Certainly! As a financial accounting management system, RetailBasics accurately calculates and withholds taxes, and keeps track of accrued superannuation owing so that you can report the correct super payments to your employees' various super funds, or your super payment service. And when it's time to reconcile super and tax paid, RetailBasics will recognise both and create the necessary accounting records automatically.

Will my employees receive their pay slips for each pay period?

Absolutely! When you are ready to do a pay run, RetailBasics will generate a detailed pay summary for each employee. This accounting software for small retail business provides comprehensive details, including total earnings, hours worked at different rates, tax withheld, and superannuation contributions. The summary is then sent as a PDF to employees automatically.

Can I track staff attendance and leave absences with RetailBasics?

Where most accounting software for retail shop solutions and payroll systems require backfilling hours and absences at the end of each pay period, RetailBasics captures this data daily. Every time a trading day record is created at one of your retail outlets, rostered hours for each employee are added automatically, which you can adjust if necessary.

How does RetailBasics handle employee leaves of absence, such as sick leave, annual leave, personal leave and others?
