Payroll the way Pakistani businesses actually run it
Most companies in Pakistan still run payroll on a spreadsheet: the attendance sheet from the biometric machine, a column for late days, another for overtime, a tax calculation copied from last year and a provident fund register kept somewhere else. Every month someone re-types the numbers, and every month something does not match.
BMS Prime turns that into one flow. Upload the attendance report, and hours, late arrivals, overtime and missing punches are worked out per employee. The payslip takes those hours, calculates the withholding tax from the FBR slabs and the provident fund share, and posts the salary to your ledger when it is issued.

Questions businesses in Pakistan ask
Does it calculate FBR salary withholding tax?
Yes. Each payslip's withholding tax is calculated from the FBR salaried slabs for the tax year. The slabs are editable, so when a new budget changes them you update them once and every new payslip follows.
Can it read our biometric machine?
Upload the attendance report from your biometric machine and BMS Prime matches every punch to the right employee, works out late arrivals, overtime and missing punches, and feeds the hours straight into payroll.
Does it handle provident fund?
Yes. Employee and employer provident fund are calculated on every payslip, the fund balance is tracked per employee, and withdrawals are recorded against it.
Can we keep our books in rupees?
Yes. Your company workspace uses PKR, and payroll posts to a real double-entry ledger, so salaries, invoices, bills, banks and petty cash all agree.
Can staff use it on their phones?
Yes. Employees see their payslips, attendance and leave, and request leave, in the browser or the Android app. Managers approve from the same app.
Is our data safe?
Every company's data is kept apart, permissions are checked on the server for every request, and every change is recorded in the audit trail. Read more on our security page.
