Accessing the Dashboard
The Dashboard is the first screen you see after logging into Tazk Payroll. It provides a bird's-eye view of your workforce, attendance, and payroll status. All data updates in real time based on current attendance records and payroll processing status.
Top Section — Quick Stats
The top row displays three actionable KPI cards that summarize critical payroll information at a glance:
| Card | Description | Click Action |
|---|---|---|
| Active Loans | Shows total active loans and dues pending (e.g., Total: 0 / Due: 0) | Navigates to the Loans module |
| Early Checkout | Number of employees who checked out before their shift end time today | Navigates to Today Attendance with early-checkout filter |
| Open Requests | Pending approval requests (leave, attendance correction, loans, claims) | Navigates to the Approvals module |
Employee Summary (Right Side)
Three icon cards showing real-time workforce status:
| Card | What It Shows | Icon Color |
|---|---|---|
| Employees | Total registered employees in the organization | Blue |
| No of Present | Employees who have checked in today | Green |
| No of Absent | Employees who have not checked in today | Red |
Events Section
A tabbed panel on the right side of the dashboard with three views:
- Upcoming — Next birthdays, anniversaries, and join dates sorted by date
- Current Month — All events in the current month with employee names and event type
- Next Month — Events coming up next month for advance planning
Each event entry displays the employee name, event type (Birthday, Join Date, Anniversary), and the date. Events are color-coded for easy identification.
Attendance & Work Hour Gauges
Two gauge charts in the middle section provide at-a-glance metrics:
- Average Attendance Rate — A gauge chart (0–100%) showing the organization's overall attendance rate for the current month. Green indicates healthy attendance (above 85%), yellow for moderate (70–85%), and red for low (below 70%).
- Average Work Hours — A gauge chart showing average hours worked per day across all employees. Compare against your standard shift duration to identify trends.
Bottom Charts
LeaveType Distribution

Cost Summary
Monthly salary cost overview showing total payroll cost, split by earnings and deductions. Use the month selector to compare costs across periods.
