Send Payslips from Excel — Without the Manual Effort

Keep your payroll calculations in Excel. Import your full salary workbook directly and let the Salary Pipeline generate every payslip PDF for you — no CSV export, no manual PDF creation.

The Excel Payroll Distribution Problem

Most small and mid-sized companies in Vietnam run their payroll in Excel — it's flexible, familiar, and free. But Excel has no built-in way to send personalised payslip PDFs to 50 or 200 employees at once, and turning a Master salary tab into 200 individual PDFs is itself a manual chore. Sheldon Sender's Salary Pipeline reads your workbook directly — master data, staff list, and passwords — and handles PDF generation and distribution in one flow.

How to Send Payslips from Excel with Sheldon Sender

  1. 1

    Import your salary workbook directly (recommended)

    Open Sheldon Sender's Salary Pipeline and select your Excel file — no export needed. It auto-detects which tab is your master salary data, which is the staff list, and which holds per-employee passwords, even with multi-row Vietnamese or English headers.

    Tip: Sheldon Sender auto-detects salary columns like base pay, overtime, KPI bonus, insurance, and net pay in both English and Vietnamese.

  2. 2

    Generate a payslip PDF for every employee automatically

    Choose the built-in payslip template, reproduce your existing payslip layout, or upload your own HTML design. The Salary Pipeline generates one PDF per employee and encrypts each with its own password in a single batch.

  3. 3

    Send — and review the delivery report

    The generated PDFs and staff list flow straight into the send step. Click Send and Sheldon Sender emails each employee their own payslip via Gmail or SMTP. A per-employee delivery report appears when the batch finishes.

    Tip: Prefer the simple route? Export a plain CSV (employee ID, email, name) and a folder of existing PDFs — Sheldon Sender auto-matches them the same way.
