Prepare employee and pay/time data.
Upload employee profile CSVs in the WageReview application, then select the pay group and pay period for each employee pay and time file. The application matches each row to the employee profile applicable on the worked date.
Use complete, reconciled records. New audit periods must start on or after 1 July 2025. Supplied employee classifications and employment types must fall within the supported scope.
Check the data you will needEstablish the period context.
After pay/time upload, provide the actual-work roster or explicitly choose to skip it. Skipping required roster evidence can move applicable outcomes to manual review.
For calculations spanning multiple pay periods, all intersecting submissions and roster decisions are required. Averaging arrangements, written part-time patterns and other relevant period setup must cover the employee and effective dates.
Setup can span several pay periods. Its existence alone does not prove that the period data is complete.
Compare supported expected and paid amounts.
When the required evidence is ready, the application calculates represented hourly-pay outcomes using deterministic rules and applicable rates. It compares the expected and paid amounts and keeps the calculation trace.
Inputs that are missing, contradictory or outside the represented contract can be rejected, block the affected calculation or require manual review. The system does not silently fill in payroll facts.
Follow the explanation. Record the review.
Open the review queue to inspect employee records, pay segments, source references and period context. Reviewers can record decisions and notes alongside the findings and export results for follow-up.
The saved evidence explains the calculation used for that run. Reviewer decisions do not rewrite deterministic results or update payments in your payroll software.
What a review can look like.
The following display illustrates the relationship between amounts, pay segments and a related Award clause. Its figures are invented for illustration, not a validated Award calculation.
| Segment | Hours | Rate | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ordinary hours | 6.00 | $30.00 | $180.00 |
| Overtime | 2.00 | $45.00 | $90.00 |
| Retail Award · Clause 21.2(c), Table 11 — Overtime rates First 3 overtime hours, Monday–Saturday: 150% for part-time employees. | |||
| Total illustrative expected | $270.00 | ||
Useful to know before a demo.
Do we need to connect our payroll software?
The current workflow uses required CSV formats. Direct payroll-system integrations are not part of this offer. During discovery, discuss whether your existing exports can be prepared for those formats.
Is this an automatic payroll correction service?
No. It provides comparisons and evidence for review. Pay-run creation, payroll write-back and automatic correction are outside scope.
What should we bring to the discovery call?
Your role, relevant Awards and high-level payroll questions are enough. The demo uses synthetic data. Do not include employee files or sensitive payroll information in booking notes.
