It's important to set the Payment Settings in the system correctly so all calculations can be done in accordance with your company practice. You find the Payment Settings tab under Settings.
-
Payment Settings Per Location
- If you have set up different Locations (As per this article: How to assign employees to different locations?), you can easily choose different Payment Settings for each location (as per this article: How to set different working days and holidays for certain employees?). Each location follows by default the HQ settings, however, you can edit specific Working days as well as Holidays.
-
Working Days
- Once you click on "Edit Working Days", select the working days applicable to your company. There are three types: Full-Day, Half-Day and Off-Day.
- Selected working days will reflect in your payroll if "Number of days for Unpaid Leave, Prorated Salary and Overtime Calculation" is set to "Working Days in Current Calendar Month".
- Selected working days will also affect all Leave types including Annual Leave and Unpaid Leave. I.e. If Unpaid Leave is applied on a non-working day, it won't be deducted in payroll.
-
Holidays
- Holidays follow "National" and "State" holidays by default depending on your company's location determined by its address. This can be edited or even removed.
- In case you have setup multiple locations as per 1. Payment Settings Per Location, by default the State Holidays of that location will be followed.
- Once you click on "Edit Holiday Date", you will be able to remove or add a holiday. For more info please read How to add or remove holidays?
-
Number of days for Unpaid Leave, Prorated Salary and Overtime Calculation
- There are three types of settings: "Fixed Number of Days", "Working Days in Current Calendar Month" and "All Days in Current Calendar Month".
