Payroll Reporting Tool PARROT

To date, there are few cross-border payroll solutions in the international arena. Fully integrated systems such as SAP or Dynamics 365 demand high implementation costs. We have the solution: our in-house developed platform PARROT! With standardised workflows, it enables all documents to be exchanged in compliance with GDPR, reconciles accounting values, and presents them in a customised report. With digital competence and AI, we are charting new paths.

Charting New Paths

With the in-house development of our Payroll Reporting Tool PARROT, we provide you with a centralised platform for global payroll. We use PARROT in over 40 countries, enabling either manual or automatic communication between our local payroll accountants and managers, our clients and their local and central payroll and HR departments. By means of standardised workflows, we ensure that all payroll activities are carried out on time. By standardising accounting values, we eliminate barriers across countries and languages. With payroll type categorisations, we create a common denominator with automatic currency conversion. Your statements are thus consolidated and comparable. We master new stages together with you.
