FIELD DOCUMENTARY · FINANCE & ACCOUNTING

Questions answered from arrays, not a model

Ask payroll is labelled on screen: “deterministic; answers from the run, exception and tax arrays, no model.” What changed vs last run is arithmetic, and the arithmetic is shown.

CORE CAPABILITIES · CEDX PAYROLL

Three architectural jobs CEDX Payroll gets right on one record.

Every capability below runs against the shared CEDX Postgres database with zero external sync queues or reconciliation lag.

01 · FINANCE & ACCOUNTING FOUNDATION

Questions answered from arrays, not a model

Ask payroll computes from the run, exception and tax arrays: “What changed vs last run?” returns $1.24M gross, +$24K (+2.1%) vs BW15, headcount 318 (+2), exceptions 38 vs 12 settled last cycle, with the source cited on the answer.

✓ Every answer cites its source arrayVerified

02 · LIVE EXECUTION

309 people, every risk on the row

The employee register carries title, department, type, rate, state, a masked bank account and tax-form status per person. 33 are missing bank details: an ACH risk priced before payday, not after a failed deposit.

Stubs on hold until they are right

360 paystubs at $1.65M filtered gross, and 35 of them are on hold with blocked ACH, visible as a count on a card, not discovered in a bank rejection file. 27 more are flagged for review before approve.

4-SCREEN RUNNING BUILD TOUR

Four screens captured from payroll.cedxsystems.com, in the order operators run them.

Click any screen below to inspect how CEDX Payroll moves from initial intake to verified cross-estate completion.

01 OVERVIEW
The open run, priced and blocked
BW16 at $1.24M gross with 54 blocking exceptions, tax deposits of $614K due soon and funding 89% ready. Alerts arrive root-caused: an ACH that will fail on a failed bank re-verify at $4.5K, a first pay incomplete without W-4 or bank at $2.4K, a garnishment riding on an expired form at $1.7K.
02 RUNS
Twenty-four runs, one open
Every run with check date, status, schedule, headcount, gross, net and exception count. BW16 sits in review at $1.24M with 38 exceptions; the off-cycle bonus run paid 42 people $186K gross in July, separate from the biweekly drumbeat.
03 PAYSTUBS
360 stubs, held where they should be
The stub register shows employee, run, check date, department, hours, gross, net and status. Paid rows sit next to Ready, Flag and the 35 on Hold. The difference between “will be paid” and “needs a person” is a column, not a phone call.
04 EMPLOYEES
The register the run is built from
309 active people with the data payday depends on: rate and type, state, masked bank, tax-form status. The 33 missing-bank and 18 tax-form issues are the same numbers the run's exception count is built from.

Continuous Multi-Entity Close on One Canonical Ledger

CEDX Payroll is not an isolated point tool. It reads and writes the exact same customer, ledger, and identity records as the rest of the CEDX software estate.

ARCHITECTURAL PROOF · OPERATOR PERSPECTIVES

Why enterprise operators replace stitched SaaS stacks with CEDX Payroll.

"Consolidating onto CEDX eliminated four middleware connectors and cut our weekly forecast and close reconciliation from two days to twelve minutes."

Marcus Vance

Chief Revenue Officer · Meridian Systems

"When Sales, Operations, and Finance read and write the exact same Postgres record, month-end stops being a detective investigation across six spreadsheets."

TECHNICAL & PROCUREMENT FAQ · CEDX PAYROLL

Questions operators and architecture teams ask before piloting CEDX Payroll.

01 Is the software on this page real? +
Yes. Every screenshot is a capture of the running build and you can open the same build at /app/payroll . It runs on demo data.
02 What does “no model” mean for Ask payroll? +
Exactly what the screen says: answers are computed deterministically from the run, exception and tax arrays. “What changed vs last run?” is arithmetic over those arrays, and the answer cites its source. Nothing is generated or paraphrased.
03 What blocks a pay run? +
The 54 blocking exceptions on the open run: failed bank re-verifies, missing W-4s, expired tax forms riding on garnishments. Each is priced and root-caused on the overview before the check date, not after a failed deposit.
04 Does it file taxes for us? +
The build calculates tax liability ($318K employer plus employee) and the deposit schedule ($614K due soon). We are not claiming agency submission: no capture shows a filing receipt, so that claim stays off this page.
05 Is Payroll audited or certified? +
No certification has been issued. What we can evidence about hosting, encryption, tenant isolation and production access is written up on the security page .
