Connect it

First connect Staffology Payroll on Dashboard → Connections, then add Memtro to your client once. The Staffology Payroll tools appear alongside the tools of everything else you have connected; nothing is configured per connector.

Who may use it

The key identifies the person, and the server offers that person the tools they may use everywhere else in Memtro. A shared Staffology Payroll connection is used by the teams an administrator granted it to, tool by tool, on the Permissions page; a personal connection is used by its owner alone, and its tools that act stay off until the owner allows them. See Teams and permissions and Connectors.

Questions

Is this an official Staffology Payroll MCP server?

No. It is Memtro's MCP server with Memtro's Staffology Payroll connector behind it: the connector reads Staffology Payroll through its API with the credentials you connect on Dashboard → Connections, and Staffology Payroll publishes nothing here. The same endpoint carries every other system you connect and Memtro's memory tools.

What does it cost?

Nothing on top of Memtro. One price per organisation by its number of users, from $50 a month for up to 10 users after a 7-day free trial, with every connector, the MCP server, jobs and memory included. You bring your own model keys.

Can it change anything in Staffology Payroll?

Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: add a note to an employer; edit an employer note's title and text; delete an employer note (permanent); create a department; change a department's title, colour or accounting code; record leave (holiday, sickness, parental and so on) for an employee; start the next pay run for a pay frequency; finalise or reopen a pay run, emailing payslips only if asked; re-send payslip emails for one pay run entry or a whole pay run; mark employees as leavers, emailing P45s only if asked. Every other tool reads, searches or lists. An administrator grants each acting tool by name per team, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

Which clients work?

Any MCP client that speaks Streamable HTTP: Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, OpenCode, Codex, Zed, Windsurf, Cline and the Anthropic and OpenAI SDKs. There is no local process to run; the server is remote and authenticated with your key.
