Welcome to Microkeeper
Microkeeper is HR, rostering, timesheets and payroll for Australian businesses, in one system. These guides show you how to set it up and use it day to day.
If you're new, start with Quick Start. It takes you from signing up to your first pay run.
What Microkeeper does
HR
Hire and onboard staff, keep one record for each employee, and stay compliant with skills, documents and work rights.
Rostering
Plan who works when and where, and publish shifts to your staff.
Timesheets
Record the hours staff work, from their phone, a kiosk or a scanner, and approve them.
Payroll
Pay staff from approved hours and your award rules, then lodge with the ATO and pay super.
Each part feeds the next: your employee records set up who can work, the roster plans the hours, timesheets record what was worked, and payroll pays it. Underneath, every part works from the same employees, Groups and cost centres: see Employees.
