Payroll — FAQ
Does payroll post automatically to accounting?
Yes. A payroll run posts gross salaries and statutory deductions (PAYE, NSSF, WCF, SDL) straight to your ledger as a balanced journal entry.
Are Tanzania's statutory deductions calculated automatically?
Yes — NSSF, PAYE, WCF and SDL are calculated and posted automatically for Tanzanian employers.
What about payroll for Kenya or Uganda?
You can configure your own PAYE-style tax bands for any country, but Kenya- and Uganda-specific statutory schemes (NHIF/SHIF, Kenya NSSF, Uganda NSSF) aren't built in as dedicated calculations yet — Vitabu's deepest payroll localization today is Tanzania.
Can employees request leave through the system?
Yes — leave requests are tracked against the same employee record payroll uses.
