Overview
Employer of Record (EOR) payroll allows you to employ workers in countries where you don’t have a local entity. Globalli handles local compliance, taxes, statutory benefits, and filings — you focus on approving payroll.
This guide walks you through how to:
Review payroll inputs
Add one-time payments or adjustments
Submit payroll for processing
Receive and review your Cash Requirements (CR) invoice
Fund payroll
Confirm payroll is released to employees and authorities
Receive payroll reports and confirmations
Before You Run Payroll
Make sure the following are complete:
✅ Employee onboarding is finalized
✅ Employment agreements are signed
✅ Salary, allowances, and benefits are confirmed
✅ Bank funding details are set up
✅ Payroll cutoff dates are noted
If any of these are incomplete, payroll may be delayed.
Step 1: Locate Current Pay Cycle
At the start of each payroll cycle:
Log into app.globalli.io with your Company Admin account.
Navigate to Payments from the left navigation and select Employer of Record
Find the current Pay Cycle and click Continue. Your Pay Cycle status should be set to "Start Payroll".
Step 2: Review Payroll Inputs
Once you've opened the payroll cycle, select the three dots beside Actions in the top right corner and select Make Payroll Changes.
Review and adjust if needed, all payroll inputs, including:
Base salaries
Approved and Taken Paid Time Off and Hours
Overtime and Hours
Statutory Holiday Pay and Hours
Commissions, bonuses, or other one time payments
Approved expense reimbursements
Once all inputs are complete, click Apply Changes
Step 3: Submit Payroll
You may need to refresh the page to see your saved changes in the employee chart.
When you're ready, select Submit Payroll in the bottom right corner. You'll be able to preview your invoice before confirming submission.
A pop-up will display an amount covering all employee salaries, taxes, and deductions.
Click Preview Cash Requirements Invoice to download the invoice and see a full breakdown of cash requirements and any additional fees associated with the pay cycle.
Click Approve Payroll to submit the payroll.
Payroll status will update to Awaiting Funds
Step 4: Fund Cash Requirements Invoice
Once you Approve the Payroll, the Cash Requirements Invoice will be emailed to you and available within your Globalli account for reference and funding.
To access your invoice, you can follow the steps in the email notification sent to you or access from your Globalli acount:
Open the left-hand navigation menu
Select Dashboard
Click on Financial
Locate the invoice that requires funding and click on it
Select Download Invoice
Follow the payment instructions on the invoice to remit payment.
Once payment has been received your invoice status will update to Paid.
Step 5: Download Employee Summary
From each invoice within the Financial section, you can select to Download Employee Summary. This provides a breakdown of gross wages, employer liabilities and allowances or deductions per employee.
What Happens After Approval
