About (UAE WPS) SIF GENERATOR - DOCSMITH
(UAE WPS) SIF GENERATOR - DOCSMITH
DocSmith SIF Generator is a browser extension for preparing UAE Wages Protection System (WPS) Salary Information Files (SIF).
It provides a focused workflow for turning payroll information into a structured SIF file. Users can import payroll data, review required information, identify structural issues, check routing details, and generate the resulting file for employer review and submission through the appropriate WPS channel.
DocSmith is designed around one purpose: UAE WPS SIF preparation. The extension does not operate as a general spreadsheet editor, HR management system, accounting platform, analytics service, messaging tool, or general-purpose browser utility.
How the workflow works
A payroll run follows three connected stages:
Start
Enter or review the employer and salary-period information required for the payroll run.
Import
Bring payroll information into DocSmith using a supported XLSX file, CSV data, pasted rows, or the supported DocSmith payroll template.
Build
Review the imported records, resolve structural validation issues, confirm relevant salary and routing information, and generate the SIF output.
The workflow is designed to keep the preparation process visible to the user rather than converting payroll data through an opaque background process.
Flexible payroll import
DocSmith supports common ways of moving payroll information into the SIF preparation workflow.
Users may import a compact XLSX file, import CSV data, paste payroll rows, or work with the supported DocSmith payroll template.
After import, the extension presents the payroll information for review before final SIF generation.
Supported compatibility paths are maintained so existing payroll preparation methods do not need to be replaced simply to use the extension.
Structural validation
Before generating a SIF, DocSmith reviews the supplied payroll information for structural and required-field issues.
Validation can identify problems involving information such as employee identifiers, salary values, payroll-period details, required fields, routing information, and the structure needed for SIF generation.
Where an issue is detected, the user can review and correct the relevant payroll information before preparing the final output.
These checks are intended to support accurate preparation. They are not a certification that a payroll run satisfies every legal or regulatory requirement.
Routing-aware preparation
Routing information is part of the SIF preparation process.
DocSmith includes routing-aware checks and reference data to help users review the routing information included with payroll records and identify common preparation errors.
The user remains responsible for confirming that the selected routing information is appropriate for the relevant bank, exchange house, WPS agent, or salary-transfer arrangement.
Routing checks provided by the extension do not guarantee that a receiving institution will accept a particular submission.
Consistent SIF generation
Once payroll information has been reviewed, DocSmith generates the corresponding Salary Information File.
The generation workflow is deterministic: equivalent validated inputs are intended to produce consistent SIF output.
This provides a predictable relationship between the payroll information reviewed in the extension and the resulting file.
The generated SIF should still be reviewed by the employer or another authorized reviewer before it is submitted.
Local-first payroll processing
Core payroll preparation, structural validation, and SIF generation take place locally within the browser extension.
Payroll information used by the generation workflow, including employee MOL identifiers, IBANs, salary amounts, and payroll rows, is processed locally and is not uploaded to DocSmith as part of SIF generation.
This local-first boundary applies to the payroll preparation workflow.
The extension also contains separate optional licensing and checkout functions. Those functions may require an internet connection and communicate with declared DocSmith services when the user chooses to use them.
Side panel workspace
DocSmith’s primary interface runs in the browser side panel.
This allows the extension to remain available while the user refers to payroll spreadsheets, source records, or other material in the main browser area.
The side panel contains the same connected SIF preparation workflow used to start a payroll run, import records, review validation results, and generate the output.
When more workspace is useful, the user may continue the same extension workflow in a full browser tab.
The side-panel permission is used to display DocSmith’s own interface. It is not used to read, inject into, or modify unrelated webpage content.
Free tier and licensing
DocSmith includes a Free tier that supports payroll runs containing up to 20 employee records.
Additional licensed access is available for larger payroll requirements.
Licensing controls access to product functionality. It does not change the underlying SIF preparation process and does not provide a separate browser purpose.
Optional licensing functions may include activation, entitlement validation, entitlement refresh, claim-code redemption, offline-token operations, and checkout-session creation.
Network access
Core payroll preparation does not require payroll records to be uploaded to DocSmith.
The extension has limited host access to:
https://licensing.docsmith.tools/*
This access is used for licensing and entitlement functions associated with the product.
Payroll rows, employee MOL IDs, employee IBANs, and salary amounts are not sent to this licensing domain as part of SIF generation.
If a user chooses to proceed with a purchase, DocSmith may open its checkout page through normal user-initiated browser navigation.
The checkout website is separate from the extension’s privileged host permission.
