Pay Cycle Management
Trusted by diverse teams
Payroll on Your Schedule
Different teams work differently. Your gig workers might need weekly payouts, while your core team is on a monthly cycle. Kiework handles it all without confusion, ensuring everyone is paid on time.
Multiple Frequencies
Run Weekly, Bi-Weekly, and Monthly pay runs simultaneously for different employee groups.
Custom Cut-off Dates
Define unique attendance cycles (e.g., 25th to 24th) for payroll calculation to match your cash flow.
Group-Based Processing
Process payroll for just "Sales Team" or "Factory Workers" independently without locking the whole system.

Payroll Frequency Efficiency Benchmarks
Standard payroll systems force you into a single, monthly cadence that doesn't fit the needs of a modern, hybrid workforce. Kiework's multi-frequency engine allows you to run weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly cycles simultaneously, all while maintaining strict data segregation for executive compensation. The following benchmarks highlight the agility and error reduction achieved by moving from a single-cycle approach to a flexible, group-based payroll strategy.
Payroll Frequency Efficiency Benchmarks
| Pay Grouping | Kiework Multi-Cycle | Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Schedule Flexibility | Unlimited Cycles | Operational Agility |
| Data Segregation | Encrypted Pay Groups | Data Privacy |
| Off-cycle Payments | Ad-hoc Batch Support | Faster Payouts |
| Attendance Alignment | Auto-cut-off Sync | Zero Errors |

Breaking Free from the "One Size Fits All" Payroll
Traditional payroll systems force businesses into a rigid "Monthly" cadence. However, the modern workforce is not uniform. A manufacturing plant might have daily wage earners; a logistics company pays riders weekly; and corporate HQ runs on a monthly salary cycle. Forcing everyone into a single schedule creates cash flow stress for gig workers and administrative nightmares for HR.
The Multi-Frequency Reality
Kiework is architected to handle multiple pay groups simultaneously. You can define a "Weekly" group for contractors and a "Monthly" group for permanent staff within the same tenant. The system intelligently segregates attendance data, ensuring that a weekly pay run only picks up the relevant 7 days of logs for that specific group, without disturbing the monthly accruals for others.
Confidentiality and Segmentation
Payroll is sensitive. In many organizations, executive compensation is handled on a separate, confidential cycle. Kiework allows you to create "Confidential Pay Groups" accessible only to specific Super Admins. Even the regular HR team won't see the CEO's payslip or salary structure processing in the background. This segmentation ensures data privacy and internal security.
Handling Mid-Month Joinees and Exits
The real test of a payroll system is handling exceptions. What happens when someone joins on the 18th of the month? Or leaves on the 4th? Manual pro-rata calculations are prone to error. Kiework’s cycle engine automatically calculates pro-rated earnings based on the exact number of days worked in that specific cycle, applying the correct divisor (26, 30, or 31 days) as per your policy. This automation ensures fairness and accuracy, eliminating disputes over "first month salary."
