A learning journey – how payroll learning works!


What a journey! Jana is leaving her current company today and starting a new one. We have been working together for over 1 year now. Last year, in March 2023, I took over the external project management for the change of the payroll outsourcing service provider in her current company. She was still a trainee then, but was already working hard and very professionally in data delivery and was present in the international project meetings with her very good English.

From September 2023, after completing her training, she was offered the opportunity to take over the interface as HR Specialist to the new payroll service provider. I was then able to accompany her on the job as a payroll learning coach and train her with payroll knowledge in half-day units. Until today.

Jana was incredibly motivated right up to the last day, asked a lot of questions and meticulously checked the new service provider! She wanted to leave everything correctly. She didn’t shy away from new topics, even if it was sometimes far too much, she got help – either from me or externally.

The statement ‘I learned a lot from you’ and ‘I couldn’t have done it without you and the others! – made me very happy!

Conclusion:

  • young people who are learning payroll accounting need long-term support
  • to stay with a company, young people need to feel supported
  • Payroll outsourcing still needs well-trained in-house payroll specialists
  • Learning payroll theory in ‘chunks’ with the link to daily practice brings success!

Thank you very much, Jana. For me you are ‘The best Young Payroller 2024’! I really enjoyed it and good luck for your new job!

Smart Payroll – the next generation of payroll

In episode #7 of the DER Payroll Podcast, my guest is Uwe Klappich, Cluster Lead for Payroll Technology at SD Worx. We talk about the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and innovations in payroll. Klappich, who is leading the development of a new in-house payroll software, explains how this technology can make work processes more efficient and what opportunities and challenges it presents for companies and payroll accountants.

Sabine Katzmair: Mr Klappich, do you personally already use AI applications such as ChatGPT or other tools in your daily work?

Uwe Klappich: Yes, definitely! I use ChatGPT and Gemini from Google, but only privately so far. AI tools like these are extremely practical for finding answers quickly, developing ideas and discovering alternative perspectives. Of course, it’s a bit more complicated when it comes to business data. Data privacy and security are very important, so I don’t use external AI applications for our company data yet. But I use AI almost every day in my personal life. The ability to ask questions and then tailor the answers to my needs is really helpful. For example, you can generate more polite or more detailed answers – this saves time and provides new ideas.
