Pizza Hut is famous for creating delicious pizzas at speed – every ingredient counts. Even, dare we say it, the payroll system.
Back in 2021, when the covid lockdown made hospitality close to impossible, Rachit GagnejaI, the owner of two Pizza Hut stores, was looking at ways to reduce costs to keep his Browns Bay and Windsor Park business going.
He soon discovered Crystal Payroll offered a far more affordable solution and quickly shifted his payroll over. However, in just a few weeks of using Crystal Payroll, he soon realized he should have switched far earlier due to its user-friendly interface.
Rachit explains:
“Unlike in the previous payroll system I was using, which required me to enter a lump sum of weekly hours, Crystal Payroll allowed me to input hours daily. This feature proved to be advantageous as it facilitated the automatic calculation of DIL, sick leave, and other entitlements based on the average hours worked by employees on specific days.
Pizza Hut franchises use Oracle hospitality software, and it came as a welcome surprise to learn that Oracle timecards could be directly uploaded into Crystal Payroll saving Rachit and his team even more time.
The benefits of switch to Crystal Payroll were abundant. It streamlined the process of managing sick leave, annual leave, DIL leave, and Covid leave, all thanks to the day-by-day hour input method. Additionally, setting up new employees and calculating their final pay upon termination became much more transparent and straightforward.
Crystal Payroll’s local support team provided initial training which according to Rachit made the transition seamless and painless.
“Their knowledgeable staff where always on hand and efficiently addressed all my inquiries”.
