Can I import our existing school data from Excel spreadsheets?

Yes! ZemERP provides downloadable, standardized Excel templates for students, parents, and staff. You can import hundreds of students, their roll numbers, blood groups, and guardian contacts in one click during onboarding.

How does the fee collection counter handle thermal receipt printing?

ZemERP has a dedicated POS print engine optimized for 58mm (2-inch) and 80mm (3-inch) thermal paper rolls, as well as standard A4/A5 sheets. You can connect any USB or Bluetooth thermal receipt printer and issue branded slips instantly.

How is staff salary calculated automatically from attendance?

ZemERP links the biometric/QR attendance hub with the salary master. The engine calculates: Total Working Days - Unapproved Absents - Half Days = Payable Days, and automatically computes net earnings, deductions (PF, ESI, TDS), and allowances.

Can teachers use the user manual on mobile phones or tablets?

Yes. ZemERP's web application is fully responsive and installable as a Progressive Web App (PWA). Teachers can mark attendance, assign homework, and enter grades conveniently from any smartphone or tablet.

Can we customize report card formats and grading scales?

Yes. ZemERP supports custom grading scales (CBSE 8/9-point, percentage, letter grades), scholastic and co-scholastic sections, school crest, signature stamps, and customizable remarks.

How safe is our institution's data on ZemERP?

Every organization operates in an isolated tenant environment with encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). ZemERP performs automated daily cloud backups, so you never have to worry about local hard drive crashes or USB data loss.
