Definitiv Evo Features

Definitiv is a single unified platform, not connected applications which means one true source of data.

Payroll

The complete payroll solution.

Definitiv equips you with one platform from time and attendance, through to payroll processing. Streamlining payroll and removing the need for multiple systems, Definitiv eliminates file uploads, reduces manual intervention and increases compliance, to free up your time and energy.

Date-driven payroll - Our intuitive date-driven technology means Definitiv can automatically interpret changes that occur during any given pay cycle.
Instant back pays - Calculating a back pay in Definitiv is quick and simple. Adjust the relevant policies or hours worked, along with the dates they are to be applied, and Definitiv will do the rest.
Infinite costing levels - Assign costs to projects, locations, departments, roles, work orders and tasks. Track your payroll costs beyond Definitiv using General Ledger Codes.
Flexible structuring - Definitiv caters for multiple pay calendars; pay, award and provision policies; shift types, work schedules, employment and even backdated policies.
Multiple entities - Have multiple operations? Manage the payroll and HR for multiple entities using the same account. For data integrity, each business is kept separate.

Time & Attendance

Eliminate double entry of data, increase costing accuracy and have greater flexibility over approvals with Definitiv’s timesheets.

With dynamic forms, detailed costing, flexible provisions and accruals, Definitiv’s time and attendance work around your business.

Configurable approvals – Customise automated timesheet approval rules to meet your organisation’s processes. Define events and jobs where multiple approvers can be required.
Dynamic Forms – Customised to an individual’s assigned projects, roles and other conditions, Definitiv timesheets will adjust and prepopulate as your employee is completing them.
Custom fields – Add as many additional fields to the timesheet as required. Start reporting on any new additional fields as soon as they are added.

Onboarding

Nurture a positive new starter experience before they even start.

Automating the onboarding experience, Definitiv not only helps you to save on administration costs but also offers your new team members a positive start to their new job. Definitiv's cloud-based onboarding module offers new team members a modern, flexible and stress-free way to join your team.

Job flexibility – Enable your people to switch roles and jobs with a tap or two, ensuring measurable and accurate job costing at all times.
