Local payroll availableCurrency: MXNAlobri's payroll software in Mexico calculates earnings, deductions and contributions from hours and absences approved in pre-payroll. It applies local rules for IMSS, INFONAVIT and SAT, supports off-cycle runs and keeps audit and reconciliation reports for every period.
In Mexico every wage payment is backed by a stamped payroll CFDI, and employee changes are reported to IMSS and INFONAVIT. Alobri starts from pre-payroll, so ISR, contributions and benefits are calculated from the same attendance data. Amounts are handled in Mexican pesos (MXN).
Payroll software in Mexico: obligations it needs to cover
Stamped CFDI 4.0 payroll receipts
Each payment to employees is documented with a payroll CFDI and its complement, which SAT uses to match income and withholdings.
IMSS and INFONAVIT contributions
Employee movements are filed through IDSE, and contributions are based on each worker's contribution salary (SBC).
ISR withholding and annual adjustment
Employers withhold ISR every pay period and, when applicable, run the annual tax adjustment for their employees.
Aguinaldo before December 20
The Federal Labor Law sets a minimum year-end bonus of 15 days' wages, payable before December 20.
PTU profit sharing
Companies with taxable profits distribute employee profit sharing under Federal Labor Law rules.
