The Challenges

When rules accumulate, every cycle becomes an exercise in precision

Collective agreements, premiums, retroactive adjustments, pension plans and sector-specific rules create thousands of possible situations. Without a shared engine, teams must multiply their validations and parallel calculations.

Without the module

  • Rules are spread across several files

  • Collective agreements are interpreted manually

  • Retroactive adjustments require parallel calculations

  • CCQ and public-sector requirements are handled separately

  • Discrepancies appear late in the cycle

With the module

  • Rules feed a shared payroll engine

  • Collective agreements are structured by population

  • Retroactive adjustments follow defined parameters

  • CCQ and RREGOP rules are taken into account

  • Discrepancies are reviewed before payment
