01
All pay types in one payroll run
Salaried, hourly, flat-rate, and commission employees all process in a single Workzoom payroll cycle. Commission plans including new unit, used unit, F&I back-end gross, and volume bonuses are configured in the platform, with chargeback adjustments applied within configurable windows and visible to the employee through self-service.
02
All rooftops in one system with location-level controls
All stores are managed in a single Workzoom instance. Store managers see only their rooftop. Group HR and controllers see all locations. Job postings, onboarding packages, and policy documents are managed centrally and applied to every store without duplicating work for each new location.

DMS flat-rate import eliminates the transcription error
Flat-rate hours import from your dealer management system via file-based export, removing the manual re-entry step where transposed numbers cause technician pay disputes. The platform applies each technician's flat-rate pay scale and provincial minimum wage top-up rules automatically.
