Payroll must derive the PF wage base from configured eligible components and produce a filing-ready supported output after review.
Connect payroll computation with the PF ECR output your team actually submits.
Configure PF-eligible components, review employee and employer contribution values and prepare the supported PF ECR 2.0 output as part of the payroll close.
For Indian payroll teams evaluating whether the HRMS can produce usable statutory outputs—not only payslip calculations.
What usually breaks before the software conversation begins.
Use these symptoms to determine whether the issue is data, policy, ownership, monthly closure or an unsupported product requirement.
01
PF logic is separated from salary component configuration.
02
The team validates totals but not employee-level contribution values.
03
Filing files are prepared manually after payroll finalisation.
04
Unsupported claims about statutory coverage create implementation risk.
Resolve the policy first, then automate the cycle.
The exact product setup is validated during discovery and demonstration. The sequence below keeps the rule, owner and downstream result connected.
Configure eligible components
Use the salary component catalogue and approved PF eligibility flags.
Compute and review
Inspect employee and employer values within the reversible payroll run.
Validate exceptions
Resolve missing identifiers or unusual values before finalisation.
Prepare the supported output
Generate the documented PF ECR 2.0 file after authorised payroll approval.
The outcome depends on more than one isolated feature.
Review the upstream source, policy resolver, approval path and downstream output together.
Payroll
Connect effective-dated salary structures, attendance and leave inputs, earnings, deductions, reimbursements, recoveries and statutory calculations in a payroll run that can be reviewed and rolled back before finalisation.
ExploreCompliance & Audit Logs
Use role and data scopes, operational audit, security events, sensitive-data access records, effective dates and controlled exports to make important actions easier to reconstruct.
ExploreCore HR
Centralise employee records, organisation structures, dated lifecycle changes and policy scope so downstream attendance, leave, payroll, performance and access decisions use the same governed foundation.
ExplorePolicy Configuration
Configure attendance, leave, payroll, approvals, permissions and notifications around the way your organisation actually works, while keeping every policy scoped, dated and reviewable.
ExploreConfirm the exact policy, evidence and product boundary.
The answers below reflect the supplied product source. Customer-specific commitments still require live-product and commercial validation.
Does duoHR describe PF ECR 2.0 output?
Yes. The consolidated payroll material lists PF ECR 2.0 as a supported output.
Does duoHR generate Form 16?
No. Form 16 generation is explicitly listed as outside the documented current scope.
Should statutory values be reverified before launch?
Yes. Statutory configuration, rates and filing behaviour require current payroll and legal validation before customer commitment.
