Running payroll

Open Payroll and pick the month. A new month offers Copy from previous month or Start empty.

Leave comes in by itself

Each person's leave for the month (approved leave, absences and late deductions) is brought in when you open the month. Sync leave brings it in again after late changes.

Each person's row

Salary, days taken, free allowance, payable days, leave deduction, loan deduction, advance, bonus and expenses back. Open a row to change any of them, and mark the salary Sent, Not sent or Partial.

The formula

Pay = monthly salary − unpaid leave days × salary ÷ 30 − loan instalment − other deductions − advances + bonus + expense refunds.

Unpaid leave days are the days over the person's free allowance. To waive a deduction, add an equal bonus. Convert to loan turns a deduction into a loan instead.

Totals and exports

The header shows gross pay, deductions, net payable, sent so far and still to pay. See Salary slips and payroll exports.

The Finance role can run payroll without seeing anything else. See Roles and page access.
