01

Getting Started

What is KormoHR?

KormoHR is a cloud-based human resource management system designed to help organisations manage employees and everyday HR processes in one place. Its modules cover areas such as employee records, attendance, leave and payroll, subject to the features available in your selected plan.

Who can use KormoHR?

KormoHR is designed for businesses and organisations, including SMEs, corporate teams, NGOs and service providers. The best configuration depends on your workforce size, locations and HR policies.

Is KormoHR suitable for small businesses in Bangladesh?

Yes. Small businesses can use an HRMS to centralise employee information and reduce manual attendance and leave tracking. Review the current plans to choose the appropriate employee capacity and modules.

Can a large organisation use KormoHR?

KormoHR can be assessed for larger organisations with multiple departments and approval levels. Capacity, reporting, access controls and integration requirements should be confirmed before rollout.

Do employees need technical training to use KormoHR?

Routine tasks are designed to be straightforward, but administrators and managers may benefit from an onboarding session. Training requirements can be discussed during implementation.

Can KormoHR replace spreadsheets used for HR management?

It can reduce reliance on spreadsheets by centralising supported HR records and workflows. Existing spreadsheet data may require review and formatting before import.

Can I request a KormoHR demonstration?

Yes. Contact the KormoHR team to discuss your organisation and request a demonstration of the relevant modules.

Can KormoHR be configured for our company policies?

Many HR rules depend on organisation-specific settings. The team can review your requirements and advise which rules are configurable and which need paid customisation.

Is KormoHR an HRMS or an HRIS?

KormoHR is presented as an HRMS, which typically includes employee information alongside operational processes such as attendance, leave and payroll. The exact capabilities depend on the active product version and plan.

Where can I find all KormoHR features?

Visit the Features page for an overview of modules and contact sales to confirm the current availability of any specific workflow.

02

Plans & Billing

Does KormoHR offer monthly and yearly subscriptions?

Yes. KormoHR is offered through monthly and yearly SaaS plans. See the Pricing page for the current published rates, limits and inclusions.

Is the yearly subscription different from the monthly plan?

Billing periods differ, and published plans may have different pricing or benefits. Check the current Pricing page before subscribing.

Is KormoHR a one-time software purchase?

No. KormoHR is a subscription-based SaaS platform. Access to the service depends on maintaining an active subscription under the applicable terms.

Does the subscription include custom software development?

Standard subscription fees cover the services and features listed in the chosen plan. Client-specific development is quoted separately unless explicitly included in a written agreement.

Are customisation charges refundable?

Agreed customisation work is generally charged as a separate, one-time, non-refundable fee, subject to the signed agreement and applicable law.

What happens to customisation fees if I cancel my subscription?

Cancelling or ending a monthly or yearly subscription does not ordinarily entitle a client to a refund of separately agreed customisation fees, subject to the contract and applicable law.

Do I own the KormoHR source code after paying for customisation?

A customisation fee does not by itself transfer ownership of the KormoHR platform or its source code. Any special ownership or licensing rights must be stated in a separate written agreement.

Can I upgrade or change my KormoHR plan?

Contact the team or review your account billing options for available plan changes. Timing and any price adjustments depend on the current subscription terms.

Are biometric devices included in the subscription price?

Hardware and device installation are separate unless a specific offer explicitly includes them. Ask for a device and integration quotation.

How do I choose the right KormoHR plan?

Consider employee count, required modules, office locations, reporting needs and any device integrations. Compare the published plans and request advice if needed.

03

Employee Management

What employee information can be managed in KormoHR?

Employee profiles can bring together relevant employment and organisational details. The available fields and document handling options should be confirmed against your plan.

Can HR manage departments and designations?

Organisational structures such as departments and designations are part of typical HR administration workflows. Confirm the exact configuration options in your KormoHR environment.

Can managers access only their team information?

Role-based permissions can be used to restrict access according to responsibilities, where supported and configured. Your implementation should be reviewed to ensure the intended access boundaries.

Can employees view their own HR information?

Employee self-service capabilities depend on the enabled modules and plan. Ask for a demonstration of the employee-facing functions you need.

Can KormoHR support multiple companies or branches?

Multi-company and branch requirements should be assessed during setup. Available structures, data separation and permissions depend on the current SaaS configuration.

Can we import existing employee records?

Data migration may be possible from a prepared spreadsheet or another system after mapping, validation and a scope review. Migration work may be quoted separately.

Can HR store employee documents?

Document management requirements, including permitted file types and storage limits, should be checked against the active product configuration.

Can different teams have different approval workflows?

Approval needs can vary by department or organisation. The team can assess which approval paths are available through configuration and which require customisation.

04

Attendance & Leave

How does attendance management work in KormoHR?

Attendance records can be used to review check-ins, check-outs and related HR reports. The data source and attendance rules depend on your configuration.

Can KormoHR track late arrivals?

Late arrival tracking depends on configured working times, grace periods and available attendance data. Minute-wise salary deductions may require additional policy configuration or customisation.

Can KormoHR calculate salary deductions for late attendance?

Late deductions can be scoped around the organisation’s approved policy and payroll rules. Confirm whether your required calculation is included in your current plan or needs a change request.

Does KormoHR support short leave by the hour?

Hourly short-leave requests and approvals can be considered as a custom workflow. Availability should be confirmed for your deployment before relying on it.

Can employees apply for leave online?

Leave application and approval workflows are part of the intended HRMS experience. The specific employee portal and approval options depend on your plan.

Can managers approve or reject leave requests?

Manager approval workflows can be configured or customised based on organisational policies and available features.

Can we set different leave policies for different employee groups?

Policy differences may require separate leave types, eligibility rules or approval paths. Share your rules for a configuration assessment.

Can HR see a consolidated leave report?

A consolidated leave report can summarise leave records for a selected period. Confirm whether the report is enabled in your version or requires a custom report.

Does KormoHR support shifts and weekly holidays?

Shift scheduling and weekly off-day requirements can be reviewed for your organisation. Advanced calendar-based duty rosters may be delivered as a custom feature.

Can KormoHR manage café or hospitality duty rosters?

A café roster dashboard can be developed for shift assignments, weekly holidays and calendar views. It should be scoped around your staffing rules and attendance process.

Can employees work across different office schedules?

Different schedules may be supported through shift or attendance configuration, depending on the version. Confirm complex rotating-shift requirements before rollout.

Can attendance and leave data affect payroll?

Attendance and approved leave records can inform payroll calculations where the relevant integration and policies are configured and tested.

05

Payroll & Benefits

What is payroll management software?

Payroll software helps HR and finance teams prepare salary calculations, track relevant adjustments and produce payroll records according to configured rules.

Can KormoHR show basic salary and allowances separately?

Salary structures can be assessed for components such as basic salary, house rent, medical and conveyance allowances. The exact breakdown available depends on the payroll setup.

Can KormoHR generate employee payslips?

Payslip availability and layout depend on the enabled payroll module. Request a demonstration of the current payslip format.

Can payroll include attendance-related deductions?

Attendance-related deductions can be integrated when the deduction policy, approval process and payroll calculation rules have been agreed and implemented.

Can KormoHR deduct employee meal costs?

Meal deductions, including adjustments for company subsidies, can be added through a scoped payroll enhancement where not already supported.

Can KormoHR manage transport deductions and subsidies?

Transport cost and employer subsidy adjustments can be incorporated into payroll through configuration or customisation, depending on the existing setup.

Can different employees have different salary structures?

Employee-specific salary arrangements may be supported by the payroll configuration. The team should verify your required component rules and effective dates.

Does KormoHR automatically handle Bangladesh payroll tax compliance?

Do not assume automatic statutory compliance without checking the current product and configuration. Tax rules change, and payroll calculations should be verified by your finance or tax adviser.

Can payroll data be exported?

Export requirements, file formats and permissions should be confirmed for your selected payroll and reporting modules.

Can we request a custom payroll report?

Yes. Share a sample report and required calculations so the team can assess feasibility, delivery time and any additional cost.

06

Biometric Devices

Does KormoHR sell biometric attendance machines?

KormoHR can supply compatible biometric attendance devices as a separate hardware offering. Contact sales for available options and a quotation.

Can KormoHR integrate an existing fingerprint attendance machine?

Potentially. The technical team must assess the installed device’s model, firmware, API or SDK, connectivity and available attendance data before confirming compatibility.

Does KormoHR support third-party biometric device APIs?

Third-party integration can be considered where a suitable API, SDK or supported data-access method is available and meets the integration requirements.

Will every fingerprint attendance device work with KormoHR?

No. Compatibility cannot be guaranteed for every device. Some devices have closed protocols, restricted APIs or unsupported firmware.

Can facial recognition attendance devices be integrated?

Facial recognition terminals may be eligible for integration if they provide a compatible method of accessing attendance records. Compatibility must be checked first.

What information is needed for a device compatibility check?

Share the manufacturer, device model, firmware version, connection method, API or SDK documentation if available, and a description of your existing attendance workflow.

Do we need to replace our current attendance machine?

Not necessarily. If your current device can reliably provide the required records through a supported method, integration may be possible without replacing it.

Can multiple office devices send attendance records to KormoHR?

Multi-device integration may be possible depending on device connectivity, employee ID mapping and the agreed architecture. It requires technical assessment.

Is biometric hardware installation included in KormoHR pricing?

Device purchase, installation, networking and integration may be separately priced. Request a written scope and quotation.

Does KormoHR store fingerprints or facial templates?

This depends on the device and integration design. Ask the technical team to document exactly what data is collected, transferred and stored before deployment.

07

Security & Support

Is KormoHR cloud-based?

KormoHR is offered as a SaaS platform accessed through an internet connection. Hosting and service details are governed by the applicable plan and agreement.

Can staff access KormoHR outside the office?

Remote access depends on user permissions, internet availability and any access restrictions configured by your organisation.

How is employee information protected?

Security should be evaluated through the actual deployment controls, access permissions, hosting arrangements and contractual commitments. Request the current security documentation for details.

Can HR control who sees salary information?

Sensitive payroll information should be restricted through appropriate roles and permissions. Confirm and test the required access rules during onboarding.

Can we request a data export when ending a subscription?

Data export options, timing, formats and any associated charges depend on the subscription agreement and applicable policy. Clarify these terms before subscribing.

Does KormoHR offer training and onboarding?

Onboarding and training can be discussed with the KormoHR team. The included services, delivery format and any fees should be confirmed in the quotation.

How can I contact KormoHR support?

Use the official KormoHR contact channels or your agreed customer support process for assistance.

Can KormoHR build features for a specific organisation?

Yes. The team can assess custom HR workflows, reports and integrations and provide a separate scope, timeline and one-time development quotation.

How long does customisation take?

The timeline depends on the requested functionality, existing code, approvals, testing and integrations. A project-specific schedule is provided after requirements review.

What should we prepare before implementing an HRMS?

Prepare your employee list, organisation structure, attendance and leave policies, salary rules, approval roles and any biometric device details. This helps identify configuration and migration needs.

Product capabilities, plan inclusions and integration compatibility may change. Confirm current availability and commercial terms with KormoHR before making a purchase decision. Links use proposed WordPress paths and should be checked before publishing.
