XLTOOL: Streamline Salary Slip Printing and eMail Delivery for Payroll
What it does
XLTOOL automates creation, formatting, printing, and secure emailing of employee salary slips from payroll or spreadsheet data. It converts payroll rows into individual payslips, applies templates, batches print jobs, and sends personalized emails with attachments.
Key features
- Template-based payslips: Design reusable layouts (company logo, pay period, earnings/deductions, net pay).
- Bulk printing: Grouped print queues and PDF generation for offline or physical distribution.
- Automated emailing: Personalized emails to employees with payslip PDFs attached; supports CC/BCC and SMTP/secure mail servers.
- Data import: Pulls data from Excel/CSV, payroll systems, or databases; field mapping for custom columns.
- Security: Password-protected PDFs and optional encryption for emailed attachments.
- Audit trail: Logs sent/printed items, timestamps, and delivery status for compliance.
- Custom fields & localization: Supports multiple currencies, date formats, and language fields.
- Scheduling: Recurring runs for monthly payroll cycles and retry logic for failed sends.
