Overview & Context

Retail staff frequently ask for partial advance salary throughout the month. When month-end arrives, verbal agreements cause misunderstandings. eKhata logs every advance payment with date stamps and calculates net payable wages automatically.

โšก KEY TAKEAWAYS FOR SHOPKEEPERS:
  • โœ“Mark daily staff attendance: Present, Absent, Half-Day, or Leave
  • โœ“Log cash advance payouts with instant balance deductions
  • โœ“Generate branded monthly digital salary slips via WhatsApp
  • โœ“Protect store profit privacy with role-based staff logins

1. The Transparent Advance Logging Rule

Whenever you hand cash to an employee, log it inside eKhata right at that moment. The employee receives a notification, creating 100% agreement.
