Enterprise HR and payroll, built for India.
One governed system for employee records, attendance, leave and statutory payroll — with maker-checker controls, an audit trail and tenant isolation built in. Here is every module, and what it does today.
Workforce overview · India
- PF payment reference to verifyDue in 5 days
- ESI payment reference to verifyDue in 7 days
- TDS filing reference to recordDue in 10 days
4 items to review before the monthly run: PF, Aadhaar and ESI exceptions found by rule checks.
Every module sits on the same governed foundation.
Attendance feeds leave, leave feeds payroll, payroll feeds payslips and evidence — on one employee record. Access, approvals and history work the same way in every module, so a control you set once applies everywhere.
One employee record, with the identifiers Indian HR actually uses.
Departments, locations and reporting lines; employee profiles with Aadhaar, PAN and UAN; and every change to a record routed for approval.
- Org structure: departments, locations, reporting lines and org chart
- Employee profiles with Aadhaar, PAN, UAN and bank details
- Profile change requests with approval before they apply
- Documents and letters — 30 document starters, typed-name acceptance with evidence
- Asset inventory issued and returned against each employee
- Custom roles and permissions on top of the standard seven
Records can hold people in any country. Statutory identifiers and payroll for other countries are on the roadmap.

Statutory payroll that changes only through a governed rule.
Pay groups, an India salary component catalog and salary structures. Every statutory rule is effective-dated and versioned, and every payroll run needs a second person to approve it.
- 01DraftPrepared with amendment reason
- 02ScheduledTakes effect on a set date
- 03ActiveUsed by payroll runs
- 04SupersededKept for history and audit
A new PT slab or LWF rate is entered once, with the reason and the date it applies from. Earlier runs keep the rule that was active when they were processed.
- Minimum wage screening flags pay below the rate you record
- Maker prepares the run; a different checker approves it
- Payroll register and payslips generated
- Bank and portal references recorded as evidence, verified by a second person
- Tax declarations and full and final settlement in the same flow
DocklyOne People does not move money or file returns. You pay and file through your bank and the government portals; DocklyOne People holds the evidence.
Punches from the office, the plant and the field — reconciled before payroll.
Attendance policies, workweeks, shifts and holiday calendars define what a valid day looks like. Exceptions go through regularization with approvals.
- Attendance policies, workweeks and holiday calendars by location
- Shifts and overtime rules
- Regularization requests with approval routing
- Timesheets
Devices push punches to DocklyOne People over the ADMS protocol — no spreadsheet exports.
Employees punch in from a browser, accepted only inside the location's boundary.
Missed punches and corrections are requested, approved and kept with the record.

Helpful AI, with clear limits on what it sees.
Two features today. Both are labelled, and a person makes every decision.
- Your own records: “my leave balance”, “latest payslip” — answered from what your role can already see. No AI model involved.
- How-to questions: answered by Anthropic Claude from Help Center articles only, PII-scrubbed and cited. 30 a day per person; owners can switch it off.
Rule-based recommendations (rules-v1) on approvals, attendance exceptions, joiners and setup readiness — each with a confidence and the reasoning. It suggests; a person decides.
Controls an auditor can follow.
