Quick answer

The Loans module in Easedesk lets you manage staff loans. Loan + advance types, emi scheduler, and salary deduction — all in one place, designed for Indian SMEs.

What is the Loans module?

The Loans module in Easedesk ERP is built for Indian businesses that need to manage staff loans without juggling spreadsheets or stitching together multiple tools. It is part of Easedesk's 50+ module unified platform.

It is included in every Easedesk subscription (subject to plan availability) and works out-of-the-box with sensible Indian defaults — INR currency, April–March fiscal year, GST-aware pricing, and Indian compliance.

Key features

Loans ships with the following capabilities:

  • Loan + advance types
  • EMI scheduler
  • Salary deduction
  • Repayment tracker

Who should use it?

Teams that staff loans regularly will get the most value. Common users include accountants, CFOs and finance teams.

Why teams choose Easedesk for this

Compared to standalone tools, Easedesk's Loans module gives you:

  • Faster disbursal
  • No reconciliation pain
  • Salary deduction automated

Permissions required

Access to Loans is controlled by the Easedesk RBAC system. By default, the predefined roles that include access are typically Admin, Accountant and the Viewer role (read-only). Owners can edit role permissions in Settings → Users & Roles.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Loans module do in Easedesk?
It lets you manage staff loans from a single place inside Easedesk, with Indian-format defaults (INR, GST, April fiscal year) and audit-grade history.
Is Loans included in my Easedesk plan?
Loans is part of Easedesk's 50+ module platform and is available subject to your subscription plan. Most plans include it by default — check Settings → Billing for what your plan covers.
Who can access Loans?
Access is governed by role-based permissions. By default, Owner and Admin roles have full access; module-specific predefined roles (e.g. HR Manager for HR, Accountant for Finance) grant scoped access. You can customise this in Settings → Users & Roles.
Can Loans be disabled if my team doesn't need it?
Yes. Owners can disable any non-mandatory module under Settings → Modules. Disabled modules are hidden from the sidebar but their data is preserved if you re-enable later.
Where does Loans data come from?
Data is created either manually from the in-app forms, imported via CSV, ingested through the Easedesk API, or auto-generated from other modules (for example, journal entries created automatically when an invoice is posted).
