What Tanda is
Tanda combines payroll, HR and workforce management for Australian employers of hourly workers.

A library of Modern Award pay conditions and templates supports automated pay calculations, including complex employment conditions. Tanda Payroll creates pay runs from timesheets, pays entitlements and supports Single Touch Payroll filing from a Tanda account. Tanda HR supports onboarding and offboarding, employment documents, qualifications and licences. Employees can use the mobile app to view rosters, respond to shifts, clock in with GPS, request leave and update personal details. Scheduling features include automatic scheduling, availability collection, time-off management, open shifts and shift swaps. Listed integrations include Xero, MYOB, QuickBooks, ADP, Lightspeed, Square and other payroll and point-of-sale systems. The Xero integration exports award-interpreted timesheets with pay items, allowances and rates, and can sync new-hire details.
