Finance teams paying learnership stipends
Payroll and Finance
Calculate stipends deterministically against the 2026 National Minimum Wage learnership floors, lock the pay run and export bank-ready files with dual sign-off.
Outcomes
What changes in practice
- Defensible pro-rata calculation with payable-day composition.
- Immutable lock snapshot with post-lock adjustment controls.
- Bank files for Capitec, FNB, Standard Bank, Absa, Nedbank and SimplePay.
Evidence
Where it is implemented
- GN R.7083 learnership floor tiers and shortfall top-up
- Dual sign-off above R250,000 or 5% adjustments
- SARS s12H and ETI schedule generation
Every capability described here is part of the same audit chain. If a step depends on an external
provider credential, the platform labels that dependency rather than presenting a simulator as a
live connection.
Start with a real cohort
A pilot uses one programme and one month of real attendance, so the evidence is comparable.
Agree the evidence policy
Attendance modes, geofence radius, approval SLA and stipend policy are configuration, not code.
Test the audit query
Pick the question that caused the most rework last cycle, and answer it from the platform.
