CONTROL SURFACE

Provident Fund Ledger controls keep records clean and traceable.

Every view stays structured and reviewable — nothing hides behind a tab.

Employee

The employee share

Deducted through payroll and posted against the employee's own ledger.

  • CadenceMonthly
  • VisiblePer employee

Employer

The employer share

The company contribution is tracked alongside, so the true fund position is visible.

Statement

Month-by-month detail

The ledger shows how the balance was reached, not just where it landed — an admin-side view HR can share as a statement.

Settlement

One closing debit

At exit the ledger closes with a debit of the full balance; whether it was withdrawal, transfer or forfeiture is recorded on the separation record and reason.

BUILT FOR CONTROL

Details that make provident fund ledger dependable.

Always-current balance

No year-end reconstruction — the ledger is maintained as payroll runs.

Manual entries

Opening balances (one per employee), interest and credit or debit adjustments can be posted by hand, with a guard against over-debiting.

Both sides tracked

Employee and employer contributions are recorded separately and totalled.

Protected automatic rows

Payroll-posted rows are duplicate-safe and cannot be deleted — corrections go through reverting the source run or batch.

CSV backfill

Historical fund records can be imported from CSV when moving from another system.

Exit integration

Final settlement reads the ledger directly, and only a withdrawal pays cash.

THE FOUNDATION

Provident Fund Ledger workflows that stay connected.

Maintain a running provident fund ledger per employee, with employee and employer contributions accumulated month by month, so the balance is always current and settlement is not a reconstruction exercise.

Contributions captured monthly

Each payroll run posts the employee and employer share to the ledger, so entries follow the salary they came from.

Running balance per employee

Every person has a statement showing accumulation over time rather than a single opaque figure.

Settlement without archaeology

Because the ledger is maintained continuously, leaving is a lookup instead of a reconstruction from old payslips.
