Send Payslips from Google Sheets
Manage your salary data in Google Sheets. Paste the link into Sheldon Sender — no export step — and let the Salary Pipeline generate and send every payslip.
The Google Sheets Payroll Distribution Problem
Google Sheets is a popular choice for managing employee and salary data in small and growing teams — it's collaborative, accessible from anywhere, and free. But when it comes to distributing payslip PDFs, Sheets offers no built-in sending or PDF-generation capability. Sheldon Sender's Salary Pipeline fills the gap: paste your Sheets link, and it reads the full multi-tab spreadsheet, generates one PDF per employee, and sends the batch — no download, no export, no manual PDF creation.
How to Send Payslips from Google Sheets
- 1
Paste your Google Sheets link directly (no export needed)
Open Sheldon Sender's Salary Pipeline and paste the Sheets URL. For sheets shared as 'Anyone with the link', no sign-in is required. Sheldon Sender reads every tab and auto-detects which one is the staff list, which is the master salary data, and which holds passwords.
Tip: Private sheets work too — connect the same Google account once and Sheldon Sender reads it via the Sheets API.
- 2
Auto-generate password-protected payslip PDFs
Pick the built-in template, reproduce your existing payslip design, or upload custom HTML. Sheldon Sender generates one PDF per employee and encrypts each with its own password in a single batch — no manual PDF creation.

Send — and review the delivery report
Click Send. Sheldon Sender emails each employee their own payslip from your Gmail account. 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.
