Monthly attendance
One mark per person per day: present, unpaid absence, paid leave, sick, public holiday or rest. Marking a day again replaces the earlier mark.
Dido · payroll and attendance
Payroll and attendance software for companies in Algeria
Dido is payroll and attendance software for businesses in Algeria, published by Sindan Solutions. Companies that pay by the month and by the day use it to compute pay from each day's attendance, with overtime, allowances and the advances already paid out.
The demo opens on a sample joinery. In the Personnel menu you see its staff, attendance for October and November, two closed pay months and the November draft.
What the module does
From attendance to the month's pay
Each card describes what the Dido payroll module does today. It is an optional module.
Monthly or daily pay
Each person has either a monthly salary or a daily rate. The staff list includes people with no login to the software, with their staff number.
Pay scales
A pay scale counts the month in days or hours: 22 days, 26 days, or 173.33 hours. A missed day costs the wage divided by the scale, and never more than the wage.
Overtime
Tiers such as +50 %, +75 % or +100 %, applied to the person's hourly rate. A rate typed on the person takes precedence. Dido refuses overtime on a day the person was absent.
Allowances
Meal, transport, seniority and any other allowance you define, set on each person's record.
Salary advances
Money handed over before payday goes on record with the cash drawer it came from. Cancelling an advance puts the money back and keeps the row.
The month's pay
For each person: paid days, missed days, unrecorded days, base pay, the price of one day, the cost of absences, overtime, advances and the month's net.
Who sees pay
Only roles that carry the staff-management permission open this module. Other users see neither salaries nor advances.
Month end
Four steps before payday
Dido recomputes the pay every time you open it. Correct one day and the month follows, with nothing typed twice.
- 01
Record attendance
One mark per person each day, with its status.
- 02
Fill the gaps
Dido lists the days nobody marked. It counts them separately and never treats them as absences.
- 03
Check advances
The month's advances, with the cash drawer each came from, show on the payroll next to the net.
- 04
Read the payroll
Five- or six-day week, your choice. For a person with no pay terms, Dido shows the reason in place of an amount.
Gross to net
Algerian income tax and social security
The Dido payroll module computes what each person's attendance earns over the month: base pay, absences, overtime, advances. Each allowance already says whether CNAS and income tax (IRG) apply to it. For now the module does not compute those deductions or produce payslips.
For the gross-to-net step, our free calculator applies the 9 % employee contribution, the IRG scale, the allowance and the smoothing formula between 30,000 and 35,000 DA.
Example: 50,000 DA gross, 4,500 DA CNAS contribution, 45,500 DA taxable, 4,585 DA IRG, for 40,915 DA net.

2026 scaleThe salary scale is still the one set by the 2022 finance law. The 2026 finance law left that paragraph unchanged.
In your own softwareIf you need IRG, CNAS and payslips inside the software, we build them as part of a custom project.
What changed in 2026
Payroll obligations in Algeria
These rules apply to every company paying staff in Algeria, whatever software it runs.
Who it suits
Companies paying by the month and by the day
The module earns its keep where attendance changes from day to day and money goes out before payday.
Part of an ERP
Payroll next to sales, stock and cash
The payroll module shares Dido's cash drawers. A cash advance comes out of the drawer you name, and the movement shows in the cash ledger with the others.
It is part of Dido, our management software, alongside sales, purchasing, stock and production. You add it to Dido, or to an ERP built around your workflow.

What payroll managers ask us
01Does Dido handle day workers?
Yes. Each person has either a monthly salary or a daily rate. The month's pay starts from the days recorded, and monthly and daily staff appear on the same payroll.
02Does Dido compute Algerian income tax and CNAS contributions?
The payroll module computes the month's net from attendance, overtime and advances. For now it does not compute IRG or the CNAS contribution. Our free calculator handles that step. With 50,000 DA gross it gives 40,915 DA net.
03How does Dido count an absence?
A missed day costs the wage divided by the pay scale, 22 days, 26 days or 173.33 hours, and never more than the wage. A day nobody marked stays separate, and Dido does not count it as an absence.
04How does Dido price overtime?
Dido applies the tier, for example +50 %, +75 % or +100 %, to the person's hourly rate. If you type a rate for someone, that rate applies. The software refuses overtime on a day of absence.
05Can we track salary advances?
Yes. Each advance keeps its date, amount and the cash drawer the money came from. It shows on the month's pay. A cancelled advance puts the money back in the drawer and stays visible.
06Who can see salaries?
Only people whose role carries the staff-management permission. You create the roles and decide who holds them.
07How much does the payroll module cost?
We do not publish a price list. The price depends on the modules you take, and we quote it after a short call.
08Can I try payroll before calling?
Yes. The Open the demo button at the top of the page opens the sample joinery, with the password example shown on the sign-in page. The Personnel menu holds the staff, two months of attendance, two closed pay months and a draft.
