How Switching Works

Switching payroll mid-year isn't as scary as it sounds.

It's the single biggest hesitation we hear, and it's never about price. You can do the whole switch yourself, in about three days — no call required. Here's exactly how.

Three business days, and it's you driving every step.

Day 1

Fill in your own employee list

Download our import template and add your team's KRA PINs, bank details, and pay structure from your last payslip or Excel file — about twenty minutes, on your own schedule.

Day 2

Upload it — Force HRM does the maths

The moment you upload your file, Force HRM calculates PAYE, NSSF, SHIF, and Housing Levy for every employee automatically. Compare the numbers against your last payroll yourself.

Day 3

Approve and go live

Once the numbers match, approve the run yourself. Your team gets paid and every statutory return files on time — no one else needs to touch it.

What you'll need

One checklist. Nothing else.

Current employee list with contact details
KRA PINs for every employee
Last three months of payslips, or your Excel file
Employee bank account details

Your P9 stays whole

Year-to-date PAYE carries over from your old system, so each employee's annual P9 reflects a full year — not two fragments across two providers.

The parallel-run guarantee

Your first month on Force HRM runs alongside your old process. If anything doesn't reconcile, our support team helps you catch it before your team ever sees the difference.
