Role example · Trained for your business
Get payroll ready before the approval deadline
Bring time records, approved employee changes and payroll exceptions into one orderly preparation process. Your bot follows your pay calendar and checks the information your payroll owner needs before each run. Botsource trains it around your systems, pay codes and approval responsibilities, then manages the work as those requirements change.

The job behind the title
Payroll preparation can become a last-minute search through timesheets, manager messages and separate employee records. A missing approval or an unexplained change then holds up the entire review. Your payroll owner needs a complete, traceable package with the unresolved questions clearly identified.
Responsibilities
Use these responsibilities as a starting point. We train your bot for the specific job you need done, including work beyond this example, with your systems, priorities and decision permissions.
Collect time records and authorized changes for the correct pay period. Check employee identifiers, effective dates and required approvals before adding an item to the preparation queue.
Request incomplete timesheets or missing manager confirmations through your agreed channels. Keep a dated record of what is outstanding and who needs to respond before the cutoff.
Compare the draft register with approved inputs and the previous period. Explain expected differences and separate unexplained amounts so the payroll owner can review them directly.
File approved reports and correction evidence in the designated location. Track open employee questions and follow through once the payroll owner supplies the answer or authorization.
A clear handoff
Illustrative workflow
An example of how the work could run, tailored during onboarding. This is not a customer case study.
A pay period closes with an unsigned timesheet and an approved allowance that has not appeared in the draft payroll register.
The coordinator requests the timesheet approval, matches the allowance to its authorization and prepares the discrepancy for the payroll owner's review before the cutoff.
An unclear deduction or pay treatment goes to the payroll owner with the relevant records. The bot keeps the question open until an authorized answer is recorded.
Onboarding & continued development
Tell us what work you need off your plate, how your business works and what a good result looks like. We agree on the responsibilities, schedule and decisions you want to keep.
Different bots are good at different things. We choose the right fit for each role, handle setup and approved access, and train your bots on your processes. We review sample work with you before launch.
Your human bot manager oversees the work, fixes issues and keeps improving your bots. As models, tools and providers change, we handle the technology behind the scenes.
We agree on targets and review methods together. These are proposed measures, not claimed results.
Before you get started
Your payroll owner keeps authority over pay decisions and payroll approval. We define the bot's preparation and record-update permissions during onboarding, including any steps your payroll platform requires a person to complete.
We assess the provider, available reports and access options with you. The job can cover the preparation and reconciliation around that provider, using the systems you already rely on.
Tell us what the person doing this job handles today. We build the role around that work, including your reporting and follow-up needs, with clear ownership for tax interpretation and other specialist decisions.
