Information for your evaluation
Pilot preparation, frequently asked questions and security information in one place.
Pilot guide
We recommend starting your first pilot with one process and a small team.
Helpful to prepare in advance
- How the target process (onboarding, monthly HR or year-end adjustment) works today
- The documents and forms involved and how they are checked now
- Your payroll and attendance software, and what you outsource to a sharoushi or tax accountant
- The people involved and their roles
- Internal rules on document retention and handling
What to evaluate during the pilot
- Does it fit the process?
- Check that template tasks, approval steps and the CSV handoff match how you actually work.
- Are checks easier?
- Note changes in effort for reviewing documents, chasing missing items, tracking status and preparing handoffs.
- What is missing?
- List features such as email reminders or integrations you would need for a full rollout.
Personal tool (previous service)
Kiriwake previously offered a tool for organising tax-return data for employees with side income. Existing users can continue to use it (Japanese only).
