Bridging the Gap: Customizing ERPNext for Qatar’s Payroll Process

ERPNext is a powerful open-source ERP, but when it comes to local payroll regulations—especially in countries like Qatar—some gaps become apparent out of the box. From Wage Protection System (WPS) compliance to gratuity, leave encashment, and air ticket provisions, Qatar has unique payroll needs that most global ERP systems don’t support natively.

At Synergy Technology, we’ve spent the past year understanding, customizing, and implementing ERPNext to fully support Qatar’s payroll process—fully integrated and localized for compliance and efficiency.

What’s Missing in ERPNext for Qatar Payroll?

• WPS Format Generation (Salary File for Bank Upload)
• Gratuity Calculation as per Qatar Labor Law
• Leave Salary & Encashment Calculations
• Air Ticket Entitlement Provisions
• End of Service Benefits Integration
• Custom Payslip
