I am not yet live using Employment Hero Payroll. Why am I getting charged before I have started using the system?

If you have engaged Pay Cat to perform your Employment Hero Payroll implementation, you may receive an invoice before you actually begin using the software. The reason for this is part of our testing requires reproducing an existing pay run in Employment Hero Payroll and checking the results against your previous payroll system.

Because this involves staff being in a pay run, having a timesheet approved etc. the employees become 'active' for billing purposes in the month that we perform this test. As a result, an invoice is triggered in line with Employment Hero Payroll's billing policy.

This is also described in our signed proposal with you under clause 20.2 Billing Commencement.

What is an active employee for Employment Hero Payroll?

An active employee is defined as any individual (set up as an employee or contractor or anything else in the business) included in one or more of the following activities within the billing period:

  • A pay run that has been finalised, even if that pay run is subsequently unlocked;
  • A timesheet that has been approved, even if that timesheet is subsequently unapproved or rejected;
  • An expense request that has been approved, even if that expense request is subsequently unapproved or declined;
  • A leave request that has been approved, even if that leave request is subsequently unapproved or declined;
  • A rostered shift that has been published, even if that shift is subsequently unpublished.
These activities will be captured within the billing period when the action is undertaken in that billing period. For eg, if a pay run is first finalised on the 10th of July, regardless of the pay period date range, or a timesheet dated in May is first approved on the 12th of July, they will be included in the invoice sent on the 1st of August that pertains to the 1 July to 31 July billing period.

How is super charged?

Employment Hero Payroll has an embedded clearing house facility called 'Beam'. Use of this facility is charged at a rate of $0.15 per employee per batch.

How is NoahFace charged?

We offer NoahFace as a standalone subscription or as a bundled price with Employment Hero Payroll.
As a standalone subscription, NoahFace as 3 plans, being Standard, Advanced and Enterprise. You can see these presented on our NoahFace pricing page here.
Once you've chosen your plan, you will be billed in 'tiers' of users. You pay for the user quantity in that tier one month in advance. Any changes to the existing tier mid month are pro rated and applied as a separate charge. To increase your tier, please contact support@paycat.com.au.
If you have a bundled subscription to NoahFace and Employment Hero Payroll through Pay Cat, we use the active employee model for Employment Hero Payroll and this is charged at a higher price point/.
