PF KYC mapping refers to the process of linking an employee's Know Your Customer (KYC) details with their Provident Fund (PF) account. KYC details typically include information such as the employee's name, address, date of birth, and Aadhaar number, among others.

The purpose of PF KYC mapping is to ensure that the PF contributions made by the employer on behalf of the employee are accurately credited to their PF account. By verifying the employee's KYC details, the employer can confirm the employee's identity and ensure that their PF contributions are being credited to the correct account.

The PF KYC Mapping page in the greytHR Admin portal helps you to generate the text file, which you must upload to the EPFO website. Uploading the file is the statutory requirement by the PF Board to complete PF KYC. The page displays a list of employees based on the various filters available. You can view many PF-related details of the employees, such as PF Number, PF Join Date, UAN number, and Document Type.

To view the PF KYC Mapping page, navigate to Payroll > Admin > PF KYC Mapping.

You can perform the following actions on the PF KYC mapping page:

Generate KYC report.
Unlink KYC for all employees.
Link an employee's KYC document.
Export KYC report.
