HRM software for supermarkets
Tryso HRM software keeps employee records with departments and designations, daily attendance, leave types with balances and requests, pay components and per-employee pay structures, and payroll runs that produce payslips. For supermarkets: one catalogue feeds every register, so a price changed once is the price at every till.

Before and after
What slows supermarkets down, and how Tryso fixes it
Grocery and convenience stores with thousands of fast-moving lines, loose goods and short shelf lives.
The problem
Thousands of lines to keep priced
A price change has to reach every till the same morning, or customers pay the old price.
With Tryso
One catalogue feeds every register, so a price changed once is the price at every till.
The problem
Loose and weighed goods
Rice, vegetables and spices arrive in sacks and are sold by the gram.
With Tryso
Units and unit conversion let you buy in one unit and sell in another.
The problem
Expiry losses
Short-dated stock is found after it has already expired.
With Tryso
Batches with expiry dates show which stock has to sell first.

One record for every employee
Keep each person's department, designation and branch in one place. Managers see the people they are responsible for, and roles keep personal details away from everyone else.
- Departments and designations
- Staff assigned to branches
- Access scoped by role and branch

Attendance and leave without the spreadsheet
Record attendance per day, define the leave types your business offers with their balances, and handle leave requests against them, so a balance is never a guess.
- Daily attendance records
- Leave types with balances
- Leave requests recorded against balances

Payroll runs that produce payslips
Define pay components and a pay structure per employee, then run payroll for the period. Each run produces payslips with their lines, ready to share with your team.
- Configurable pay components
- Pay structure per employee
- Payslips with lines for every run
