The record

Purpose: CarbonHRM provides HR, payroll, and reporting for churches, ministries, and non-profits.
Payroll: Its payroll model includes ministry-specific concepts such as housing allowance, 403(b), and Form 4361.
HR and payroll records: Core HRM and Payroll cover employee profiles, positions, compensation, benefits, and payroll processing for full-time, part-time, and contract staff.
Modules: Optional modules include timekeeping, leave management, team member reviews, tax reporting, analytics, onboarding, RMS/ChMS integration, accounting integration, and AI features.
Mobile app: The mobile app provides staff with pay history, pay stubs, tax documents, time entry, PTO requests, and notifications.
Mobile timekeeping: The platform page lists event-coded, multi-job, and overtime-aware time entry, plus geofenced clock-in at campuses.
Accounting integration: Sage Intacct is listed in final validation; QuickBooks Online, Xero, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, and Shelby Financials are listed as coming soon.
Church management integration: CSV uploads from any ChMS are available, while direct Rock RMS integration is in active build; Planning Center and Breeze ChMS are listed as coming soon.
Tax engine: CarbonHRM says it integrates with Symmetry Tax Engine so calculations reflect applicable tax law.
Security: The security page states that data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and that protected actions use server-side permission checks.
Security testing: The maker says automated probes test cross-organization access and browser tests exercise product roles in deployed environments.
Compliance status: The security page marks SOC 2 preparation as underway.
Support: CarbonHRM says it answers security questionnaires and board-level questions in writing.
Pricing limits: Pricing depends on staff count, selected modules, and integration needs; the maker quotes after a conversation rather than offering self-serve checkout.
