But if you run a business, more often you\u2019re pulled into looking over the business finances yourself.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most banks with several tedious processes in place, make salary payments quite a complicated task. For instance, a company is required to have at least 20 employees to create an employee bank account for salary payments. And this, simply put, is to get approval for the payroll structure.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But before we get into that, let\u2019s take a look at the kind of challenges small businesses face while <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/open.money\/products\/payroll\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">processing employee payroll<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span>\r\n<h3><b>Payroll Challenges<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s say, you need to make monthly salary payments. Be it for contractual or permanent employees, you will need to calculate payroll expenses and submit encrypted payroll sheets to the bank by the 20th of the month. Else, the salaries won\u2019t be sent out on time.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This process includes adding new beneficiaries (new employees) and releasing full &amp; final settlements (batch by batch \u30fc depending on your company policies).\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adding to it is the chaos of submitting a signed and sealed copy of an indemnity clause by the business owner or the founder (YOU!) to the respective partner bank. Not to forget, you will need to submit a signed cheque equivalent to the total salary to be disbursed, along with many other documents.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media3.giphy.com\/media\/8OlT82jKm6Ugg\/giphy.gif?cid=ecf05e47xup0poxbfctwwlegypreb91dmnl1mrzymwnlxeog&amp;rid=giphy.gif\" alt=\"Salary payments\" width=\"486\" height=\"433\" \/>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now imagine what would happen if you were traveling around this time? Well, the entire cycle would need to be completed prior to that!\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sounds exhausting, doesn\u2019t it?<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It gets a lot more complicated. There\u2019s an added prerequisite of filling up 18-20 fields to process every individual<\/span><b> employee payroll<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now think of your plight if you miss out on filling up even one field! You will be forced to repeat the entire drill.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Good news, though! There\u2019s a way to speed things up and reduce your stress levels. You can put a stop to this at once with Open\u2019s payout API feature. <\/span>\r\n<h3><b>How does Open\u2019s payroll software simplify salary payments for you?\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\">\r\n<table style=\"width: 856px;\" width=\"855\">\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"width: 412px;\"><strong>Paying salary the old way<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 444px;\"><strong>Paying salary with Open<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<\/tr>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td style=\"width: 412px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a mandate to fill out 18-20 fields of details for each employee manually.<\/span><\/td>\r\n<td style=\"width: 444px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You just need to type in four fields \u2013 name, account number, IFSC code, and total amount to be paid.
