Frappe HR is an open-source HR and Payroll application built on the Frappe Framework, offering modules for employee lifecycle, leave and attendance, expense claims, performance management, recruitment, and payroll with taxation. It integrates tightly with ERPNext accounting and includes a mobile PWA for employees.

Use cases

• run payroll and manage salary structures for my company
• track employee attendance and leave balances
• manage recruitment and onboarding of new hires
• handle employee expense claims with approval workflows
• run performance appraisals and goal tracking
• self-host an open-source HRMS instead of paying per-user SaaS
• manage shift scheduling and check-ins with geolocation

When to choose

• you want a fully open-source HRMS with no per-user licensing costs
• you already use ERPNext and want integrated HR and accounting
• you need customizable forms, workflows, and reports via the low-code Frappe Framework
• you want self-hosting or managed cloud hosting options
• you need payroll with country-specific tax support such as India

When to avoid

• you need a lightweight standalone tool without the Frappe/ERPNext stack
• your country's payroll and tax rules are not supported and you cannot build them
• you lack technical capacity for hosting and implementation
• you only need simple time tracking without a full HR suite
