THE FOUNDATION

Earnings & Deductions workflows that stay connected.

Model earnings, employee deductions and employer contributions as configurable salary components with calculation type, taxable behavior, mandatory rules and display order.

Earnings

Gross pay lines such as base salary, allowances or fixed additions are calculated as earning components.

Deductions

Tax, benefit deductions and custom deductions reduce employee net pay; loan installments run as their own payroll line outside the component list.

Employer contributions

Employer-paid costs are recorded separately for cost-to-company reporting without reducing employee net pay.

BUILT FOR CONTROL

Details that make earnings & deductions dependable.

01

Three component types

Earnings, deductions and employer contributions are modeled separately.

02

Three calculation modes

Fixed-amount, percentage-of-basic and percentage-of-gross components are supported.

03

Partial tax exemptions

Beyond taxable and exempt, components can be partially exempt — a share of basic or a flat monthly cap.

04

Statutory base flags

Four flags mark which components feed social security, provident fund, overtime and gratuity bases.

05

Targeted components

Components can be scoped to specific pay grades or employment types.

06

Inactive components

Old components can be hidden from new assignments without deleting history.
