Service overview

What this engagement covers and how we work with your team.

Frappe HRMS has everything you need to drive excellence within your company — employee management, onboarding, leaves, payroll, taxation, and more. Originally part of ERPNext, HRMS is now a mature standalone product on the Frappe stack.

Weque helps growing teams in Kerala and beyond implement HRMS with correct leave policies, payroll structures, and mobile check-in — configured step by step before go-live.

FAQs

Short answers to common questions about this service.

Does Frappe HRMS require ERPNext?

HRMS can run standalone. Accounting integration (expenses, payroll journals) requires ERPNext when you need full finance sync.

Is Indian payroll supported?

Frappe HRMS supports configurable salary structures and tax components. We map your statutory deductions during implementation.

Can employees use a mobile app?

Yes — the HRMS mobile app supports leave applications, approvals, check-in/out, and profile access.

How long does implementation take?

Typical SME rollouts take a few weeks after policies are documented — complex multi-entity setups may take longer.
