Q:

How do I update payslip templates to include statutory IDs aligned with the latest EPFO portal formats?

A:

  • Add fields in the payslip for UAN, Aadhaar-seeded status, and masked Aadhaar (XXXX-XXXX-1234) to match EPFO’s latest displayed format.
  • Use name and DOB exactly as per EPFO KYC to avoid mismatch—pull these from the HRMS KYC-verified fields only.
  • Ensure PF components show employee PF, employer PF (EPS + EPF split), and total contributions in the same structure EPFO shows in passbooks.
  • Keep statutory IDs in a fixed, non-editable block so formatting remains consistent with EPFO/ESIC statutory templates.

  • Pre-requisites alert – Tell employees to ensure Aadhaar is updated, mobile number is linked, and the Face RD app is installed.
  • Deadline & impact note – Clarify that PF services (KYC, passbook, updates) won’t work until activation is complete.

A:

  • Use an authorized EPFO or vetted third-party UAN verification API (sandbox first) to do real-time/batch checks, call the API and receive verification + transaction ID rather than scraping the portal. 
  • Transmit only minimal, non-recoverable identifiers (e.g., HMAC/hash of UAN or one-way token) to the API; never store raw Aadhaar or unmasked PII, persist only verification status, API transaction ID, timestamp and consent record. 
  • Design the flow: upload CSV → client/service hashes UANs → call vendor API in throttled batches → store only masked UAN/status/txn-ID → purge raw files and keep encrypted audit logs for compliance. Also keep an opt-in/consent record for each employee.

A:

  • Set a KYC verification cutoff (e.g., T-3 days before payroll lock) after which pending Aadhaar/UAN updates won’t affect the current cycle.
  • Freeze PF-sensitive fields (name, DOB, gender, Aadhaar) at cutoff and defer any unverified changes to the next cycle.
  • Allow payroll to run but block PF challan generation until EPFO approves the update.
  • Generate a daily KYC Pending vs Cutoff exception list for HR to follow up.

A:

  • Let onboarding capture all PF-required fields but mark UAN as pending FAT verification so payroll can run with a temporary placeholder ID.
  • Trigger employee-led UAN creation via UMANG/FAT in parallel and poll status daily until activation.
  • Add a PF compliance holds only for contribution filing, not salary processing, so payroll isn’t blocked.
  • Auto-update UAN in HRMS once FAT succeeds and regenerate PF challans retrospectively for that month
