AmarHR Features Guide

Explore the core capabilities of AmarHR, from location-based time tracking to automated salary calculations and employee self-service tools.

Overview

AmarHR streamlines your HR operations with powerful features for time tracking, payroll automation, and employee self-service. You configure rules once, and the system handles 99% of the work automatically, saving time on manual calculations and reporting.

All features integrate seamlessly. Start with attendance setup to unlock payroll automation.

Attendance Tracking

Configure attendance to capture hours accurately using Wi-Fi connections or geolocation. Support standard shifts or flexible hours, and apply allowances based on check-in locations.

Employees connect to your office Wi-Fi to clock in/out. Ideal for fixed locations.

Enable Wi-Fi Tracking

In the dashboard, navigate to Attendance > Settings and toggle enableWiFiTracking.

Add Networks

Enter SSIDs like Office-WiFi and assign locations.

Test Check-in

# Employee clocks in via app
curl -X POST https://api.example.com/v1/attendance/clock-in \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -d '{"network": "Office-WiFi"}'

Payroll Processing

AmarHR automates salary calculations from attendance data. It computes base pay, overtime, allowances, and generates ready-to-file tax reports in Excel.

{
  "payrollSettings": {
    "baseHourlyRate": 15.50,
    "overtimeMultiplier": 1.5,
    "allowances": {
      "location1": { "extra": 2.00 },
      "location2": { "bonus": 5.00 }
    },
    "taxRates": {
      "vat": 0.10,
      "incomeTax": 0.20
    }
  }
}

Run payroll monthly after attendance closes to ensure accurate data.

Employee Mobile App

The mobile app gives employees control over their data. They clock in/out, submit leave requests, view payslips, and access contracts.

  • Clock-in with photo verification
  • Submit requests (leave, overtime approval)
  • View salary breakdowns and tax details
  • Access employment contracts and announcements
