If you employ staff across multiple businesses, you can use separate Tanda accounts, or combine all the businesses into a single Tanda account.
Option A - Two separate Tanda accounts. This option is the best if employees and managers aren't shared between businesses.
Option B - Multiple businesses within the same Tanda account. This option is best if employees and managers often work across multiple businesses.
Option A - Separate Tanda Organisations for each business
This method creates complete separation between each business's Tanda account. Staff employed across multiple businesses can switch between each Tanda account from one login, however their employments remain completely separate.
For example, if an employee exists in two Tanda organisations, the leave requests of each organisation will not appear in the other - they are completely distinct Tanda environments.
On the mobile app, employees can quickly switch between their accounts by navigating to their profile and selecting an account under the Switch account dropdown.
The two accounts must share the same email to switch between them like this.
Option B - Single Tanda Organisation with multiple payroll integrations
The second method is to have multiple businesses in the same Tanda account, each as a separate location. This option means managers can see if staff have already been rostered at another location, and centralises all leave requests in one Tanda Organisation.
You'll first need to set up payroll integrations for each business and set the default location as the correct location for the business.
The 'default location' links employees to the correct payroll file through the 'default payroll location' field on the employee profile.
The default payroll team on the employee profile determines which payroll integration the employee's payslips will export to:
Important note: Staff timesheets are exported to the payroll integration that matches their default location, regardless of how many shifts they work in each. Timesheets will not be split up and exported separately (e.g. 3 shifts to one and 3 shifts to another), they will only ever export in full to the payroll file allocated to their default location.
Example
Ben works across Gold Coast and Brisbane but his default location is Brisbane.
He works 4 shifts in Brisbane and 1 at Gold Coast
When his timesheet exports, it will be sent to the payroll file associated to his default location - Brisbane
If employees hold more than one instance of employment and are paid from multiple businesses each period, this will require the employee to have a profile in Tanda for each instance of employment to ensure that their entitlements are calculated separately, and ensure that each instance of employment is truly distinct.
