The problem: payroll outside SAP Business One costs more than it should

Most SAP Business One customers in Germany outsource payroll or use third-party systems with elaborate interfaces. What starts as a simple solution quickly becomes a permanent cost burden.

⚠ Outsourcing cost: external payroll providers charge per employee per month. Costs rise linearly as your workforce grows - with no added value for your internal processes.

⚠ Media breaks: data has to be exported manually from SAP Business One, sent to the provider, and later imported again. Every handover is a potential source of errors.

⚠ Lack of control: deadlines, correction runs, and special cases sit in someone else’s hands. Follow-up questions slow things down, changes cost extra.

⚠ Interface trouble: third-party systems require constant interface maintenance. SAP Business One updates can cause incompatibilities - with the risk of failure on payroll day.

⚠ Compliance uncertainty: legal changes (PAP, social insurance, ELSTER) have to be implemented on time by the provider. As the employer you carry the responsibility - without direct control.

⚠ No real-time access: reports, payroll accounts, and pay slips become available only after the external run is finished - not when you actually need them.

The result: high running costs, dependency on third parties, limited flexibility, and a permanent compliance risk - even though your SAP Business One environment already has everything an integrated solution needs.

Frequently asked questions

What sets PayrollPro apart from external payroll providers?
PayrollPro is a native SAP Business One solution that runs directly inside your SAP Business One environment. Unlike external providers, you keep full control over payroll data, deadlines, and processes. No media breaks, no dependency on third parties, and no ongoing per-employee fees.
Which SAP Business One versions are supported?
PayrollPro supports SAP Business One from version 10.0 FP2008 - on both SAP HANA and Microsoft SQL Server. The solution is based on .NET 4.8 and uses SAPbouiCOM (UI API), Service Layer, and DI API.
How long does implementation take?
Installation takes around 30 minutes. Full setup - including master-data migration, wage-type configuration, test run, and training - is completed in 1-2 working days. We recommend starting at the beginning of a calendar year and running payroll in parallel for the transition period.
Is PayrollPro compliant with the current PAP (official German payroll algorithm)?
Yes. PayrollPro fully implements the PAP (Programmablaufplan) published by the German Federal Ministry of Finance. Legal changes are delivered on time via annual maintenance updates.
How does the ELSTER connection work?
PayrollPro uses the official ERiC interface (ELSTER Rich Client) of the German Federal Central Tax Office. Wage-tax filings and certificates are signed and transmitted straight from SAP Business One. No separate portal or third-party tool needed.
Are all social-insurance notifications supported?
Yes. PayrollPro generates all relevant DEUEV notifications as well as monthly contribution statements and AAG (Aufwendungsausgleichsgesetz, German employer reimbursement scheme) refund requests. Electronic submission happens directly from SAP Business One.
Why is annual maintenance mandatory for the purchase licence?
German wage-tax and social-insurance law changes every year. Without up-to-date updates, PayrollPro cannot guarantee legally compliant payroll. The maintenance fee ensures your solution always reflects the current legal state.
Can sensitive salary data leave the company network?
No - unless you want it to. PayrollPro runs fully on-premise. Salary data is processed locally. Only the legally mandated notifications (ELSTER, DEUEV) are transmitted to the relevant authorities in encrypted form.
How does the tiering by headcount work?
Licensing is based on the number of actively paid employees. You can upgrade at any time as you grow. Only employees who are actually being paid count - not the total number of SAP Business One users.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. PayrollPro can be tested for 30 days free of charge and without obligation - with full functionality and no automatic renewal. The trial version is installed in your own SAP Business One environment.
