How it works

One connected record.How nonprofit HR software runs on it.

01
Grant allocation is architectural, not a report
Fund codes and cost centers are configured in Workzoom so payroll allocation calculates from approved time automatically, not from a manual split done after the fact. Funder reports are built from configurable reports and exports, not assembled from three separate systems.
02
Volunteers and staff share one scheduling view
Volunteers are tracked in Workzoom with their own profile type, separate from paid employees, but visible in the same scheduling calendar. Volunteer hours are tracked but excluded from payroll and T4 generation, so program managers see the full picture in one place.
03
Multi-location without multi-system overhead
Employees scheduled and tracked across multiple locations and programs log time by location, and payroll allocation reflects exactly where they worked each period. A 65-person nonprofit using HR and Payroll suites pays $520 per month with no per-location fees.
